The  images  appearing  here  are  the  best  quality 
possible  considering  the  condition  and  legibility 
of  the  original  copy  and  in  keeping  with  the 
filming  contract  specifications. 


Original  copies  in  printed  paper  covers  are  filmed 
beginning  with  the  front  cover  and  ending  on 
tha  last  page  with  a  printed  or  illustrated  impres- 
sion, or  the  back  cover  when  appropriate.  All 
other  original  copies  are  filmed  beginning  on  the 
first  page  with  a  printed  or  illustrated  impres- 
sion, and  ending  on  the  last  page  with  a  printed 
or  illustrated  impression. 


The  last  recorded  frame  on  each  microfiche

whichever  applies.

originaux  sont  filmds  en  commenpant  par  la 
premidre  page  qui  comporte  une  empreinte 
d'impression  ou  d'illustration  et  en  terminant  par

dernidre  image  de  cheque  microfiche,  selon  le 
cas:  le  symbole  — »>  signifie  "A  SUIVRE",  le 
symbole  V  signifie  "FIN". 


Maps,  plates,  charts,  etc.,  may  be  filmed  at 
different  reduction  ratios.  Those  too  large  to  be 
entirely  included  in  one  exposure  are  filmed 
beginning  in  the  upper  left  hand  corner,  left  to 
right  and  top  to  bottom,  as  many  frames  as 
required.  The  following  diagrams  illustrate  the 
method: 


Les  cartes,  planches,  tableaux,  etc.,  peuvent  dtre 
film^s  d  des  taux  de  reduction  diff6rents. 
Lorsque  le  document  ept  trop  grand  pour  dtre

et  de  haut  en  bas,  en  prenant  le  nombre 
d'images  ndcessaire.  Les  diagrammes  suivants

ier,\vhicliswept  alonij  the  sea-coast  on  the  Kith,  1  1th, and  lijih  of  .January,  lfe3i.  ']||j 
violent  winter-storms  exhibit  nearly  the  same  |)hases  of  w.id  and  general  ciiariicierJ 
isticsas  those  which  apjiear  in  the  summer  and  autumn. 

Track  No.  XI.  represents  a  portion  of  the  general  route  of  the  violent  inliiiidsidr 
which  swept  over  the  Lakes  Kric  and  Ontario,  on  the  l.'ith  of  iNovendier,  lh35. 
storn;  was  very  extensive,  si>rea(lin^-  from  liie  sea-coast  of  Virginia  into  the  ('iiri,u'i!,1 
to  a  limit  at  present  unknown.  The  anterior  jiortion  of  this  gale  was  but  niodcriui'ij 
felt,  and  its  access  was  noted,  chielly  liy  the  direction  of  the  wind,  and  Ibc  ^i-^..^^  r,^ 
of  the  barometer;  the  violence  of  the  storm  being  chietly  exhibited  by  thu  postcf  J 
tviid  colder  portion  of  the  gale,  as  is  common  with  extensive  overland  sloriis.  XlJ 
regular  progression  of  this  storm  in  an  Jlastcrly  direction  is  clearly  estalilisiied  !„ 
facts,  collected  by  the  writer,  from  the  borders  of  Lake  INliehigan  to  the  (idlC  m  ,'v^ 
Lawrence,  and  the  sea-coasts  of  New  Kngland  aiid  Nova  Ncotia. 

We  have  thus  given  a  sunnnary  description  of  tiie  route  of  12  storms  or  luirricnnpjL 
which   have  visited  the  American  coasts  and  seas  at  various  jieriods,  and  at  (iii'tfj 
cut  seasons  of  (he  year.     The  lines  on  (be  chart,  which  represent  the  nuiles,  iircliul 
approximations  to  the  centre  of  (be  track,  or  course,  cf  the  several  storms;  and  im 
gales  are  to  be  considered  as  extending  (heir  roiutive  circuit  from  50  (o  300  niiks.oi 
more  on  each  side  of  the  delineations ;  the  su])erficial  extent  of  the  storm  beiiiiUNiiJ 
mated  both  by  actual  information  and  by  its  duration  at  any  point  near  the  central  lo^ 
lion  of  its  route,  as  compared  with  its  average  rate  of  progress.    The  figure  wiiicii  jn, 
pearsnpon  the  chart,  on  Tracks  Nos.  L,  V.,and  VH.,  will  serve,  in  some  degree,  v  iliusi 
trate  the  course  of  the  wind  in  the  various  portions  of  the  superficies  covered  hvijil 
storm,  and  also  to  explain  the  changes  in  the  direction  of  the  wind  which  occur  sue, 
ccssively  at  various  points,  during  the  regular  progress  of  the  gale.     The  diimnsiuni 
o'tlic  several  storms  ajipearalso  (o  have  gradually  exp.inded  during  their  course, 

iStorms  of  this  character  do  not  often  act  with  great  violence  on  any  consider, 
extent  of  interior  country  to  which  they  may  arrive.  Even  upon  tiic  coasts  on  whicj 
they  enter,  such  violence  is  no,'  often  experienced  under  the  pos(iriorlind)  (irtli(';;3|J 
which  sweeps  back  from  its  circuit  over  the  land,  the  usual  woodlamls  and  eltviiuinj 
being  a  suiTicient  jirotection.  Often,  indeed,  the  interior  elevations  alliird  sucli  ;isl,ett 
tcr  as  entirely  to  neutralize  the  eflect  of  (he  v\ind  at  and  near  the  surface,  aiidiLeiJ 
sence;:nd  jiii'.sage  of  (he  hurricane  is,  in  such  cases,  to  be  noted  chietly  by  (he  um;-ud 
depression  which  (he  great  whirling  movement  of  the  incumbeiit  stratmn  ol'i.ir'rol 
duces  in  the  mercury  of  (he  barometer,  which  thus  indicaies  the  ])resence  or  pii!.s; 
of  the  hurricanes  in  posi(i<ms  where  the  force  of  (he  wind  is  not  feltat  all,  oroiilv«ii| 
n  moderate  degree  of  violence.  The  action  of  these  storms  aj)pears  indeed,  tobu 
first  confined  to  the  stratum  or  current  of  air  moving  next  to  the  earth's  surfiicc,  :id| 
they  seldom,  while  in  this  posilioi!,  appear  to  exceeil  a  mile  or  so  in  altitude;  iv.ii 
course  of  (he  next  highest  or  overlaying  siraiuui  diicsnot,  in  these  cases,  sccni!(i  In 
ail  alTcctcd  by  (he  action  of  (he  s(orm  below.  During  Ihc  progress,  luiwcvor,  bv  iln 
intlucnce  of  high  land  and  o(her  causes,  (he  s(orms  often  become  transferred,  in  wiioi 
or  in  part,  (o  (he  nex(  iiigher  s(ra(um  ot" current.  Thus  we  son;etimes  sec  'i  siniui 
of  clouds  moving  with  the  full  velocity  of  a  violent  stcuni, while  the  stratum  (if  siiri;ii( 
wind  is  nciirly  at  rest,  or  moves  widi  ils  ordiiiary  velocity  ;  arid  thus,  also,  it  lui 
that  balloons,  ascending  under  such  circumstances,  are  carried  forw  ard  vvilli  ;i  \f.iic|

^vt'ssrl  hound  to  the  I'lastward  hetwccn  the  Infitudes  of  '.i'2  '  and  15  '  in  llie  Wcst-

i,;iike  circumstances,  she  will  probably  lull  into  the  heart  of  the  storm. 

Iitlic  same  reiriou,  vessels,  on  i  ikinif  a  <xa\i;  from  H.V].,  or  ()oinis  near  thereto, 

.riihnldy  soon  fmd  tiiemscdves  in  the  heart  of  the  storm,  and  ;ifler  its  first  fury  is 

,iii;iy  e\pect  its  rccnrrence  from  the  opposite  (piarter.     The  most  proaiisii;ir 

III' luiliiratin'j;  its  violence,  and  at  the  same  time  shorteninsx  its  dnration,  is  to 
;iiiilie  Southward  upon  tin;  wind,  as  lontr  as  may  be  necessary  or  possible  ;  ami 
^movement  succeeds,  the  wind  will  gradually  head  you  oil' in  the  same  .direction. 

iicuiues  neces^i.ry  t(j  heave  to,  and  the  wind  does  not  veer,  be  prepared  for  a 

iriiiii  the  North-west. 

in  ijie  same  latitudes  a  vessel  scudding  in  a  gale,  with  the  wind  at  East  or  North- 

ihorlius  its  duratiim.     On  tin;  contrary,  a  vessid  scudding  before  a  South-west- 

rWestcrly  gale,  will  thcreliy  increase  its  duration. 

A  vessel  wlii(di  is  pursunig  Iter  course  to  the  Westward  or  South-westward,  in 
;:;irt  of  tli(^  Atlantic,  meets  the  storms  in  their  course,  and  thereby  shortens  tlw; 

;<ol'their  occurren(!e  ;  and  will  encounter  more  gales  in  an  e()ual  number  of  days 

ilStationary,  or  sailing  in  a  dillerent  direction. 

Oh  the  oilier  hand,  vessels  while  sailing  to  the  Eastward  or  North-eastward,  or 

[tidiiirse  of  the  storms,  will  lengthen  the  periods  between  their  occurrence,  and 

-|;ieiitiy  experience  tlunn  less  freipiently  tlian  vessels  sailing  on  a  dillerent  course. 

iiijircnce  of  exposure  which  results  from  these  o])|)osite  courses,  on  the  American 

.may  in  most  cases  be  estimated  as  nearly  two  to  one. 

The  hazard  frotn  casualties,  and  of  consequence  the  value  of  insurance,  is  en- 
luilor  diminished  by  the  direction  of  the  passage,  as  shown  under  the  two  last  heads. 

A<  tlu;  ordinary  routine  of  tlu;  winds  and  weather  in  these  latitudes  often  cor- 
poiiiis  to  the  phases  w  hirti  are  exhibited  by  tin;  storms  as  before  described,  a  cor- 
iijiinion.  founded  upon  this  resea»blanc(>,  can  often  be  lormcd  of  the  apj)roaching' 
i/i'sot' wind  and  we  aher,  which  may  be  highly  useful  to  the  observing  navigator. 

I;  will  he  perceived,  Irom  the  foregoing  facts,  that  the  occurrence  of  a  storm  at 
caciilar  locality,  has  no  immediate  connection  with  astronomical  periods,  such  as 
ciiiuiges  of  the  moon,  or  the  time  of  the  equinoxt'S. 

A  due  consideration  of  the  facts  which  have  been  stated,  particularly  those  un- 
iiur  twelfth  head,  will  inspire  additional  confidence  in  the  indications  of  the  harom- 
..'v\  these  ought  not  to  be  neglected,  even  should  the  fall  of  the  mercury  be 
iiii'lcd  by  any  ajipearanees  of  violence  in  the  weather,  as  the  other  side  of  the

A  Current  is  at  present  to  be  understood  as  a  stream  on,  or  a  particular  seL

elusive  of  (hut  which  may  lie  inlluenced  hy)  the  causes  of  the  tides.  It  is  an  diis^ 
tion  of  Dampier,  that  currents  are  scarcely  ever  felt  hut  at  sea.  and  tides  hut  nim-J 
coasts;  and  it  is  eertaiidy  an  cstaljlished  tact,  iliat  currents  prevail  mostiv  in  tj 
parts  where  the  tides  arc  weak,  and  scarcely  pcrccj)tihle,  or  where  the  sc:i,"ap|i;iJ 
little  inlluenced  by  the  cause-  of  tiui  tide,  is  disposed  to  a  qui<'scciit  state.  TliiH 
be  o!)vious  by  an  attentive  consideration  of  the  follow  insr  dcscriiJiions.  The  iiccei 
of  attention  to  theh;.V,ni,  iniiierceplihlc,  and  therefore  dangerous  operation  nl'dirrj 
■will  be  equally  apparent. 

The  currents  of  the  Atlantic  arc  often  of  a  local  and  temporary  nature  ;  yn  ni 
cnce  has  shown  where  and  how  they  |iredoininate,  and  reason  will  inform  tlic  ma^ 
where  he  is  to  expect  and  allow  for  their  o|)eralii)n. 

With  the  irreatest  velocity  of  the  <'ipunoeiial  current  we  cannot  protend  to  be 
rately  accpiainted.     Its  central  direction,  when  in  full  lorce,  is  V/.N.W.,  and  2:L'iit'r 
it  is  imagined,  about  one  mile  and  a  half  in  the  hour,  but  inereasiuLf  to  the  \Ve,<iiv| 
so  that  oH'the  coasi  of  (Juyana  it  connnonly  sets  at  the  rate  of  "J  or  3  uiili's. 

At  any  coiisideral)le  distance  from  the  coast  of  Anu'i'ica,  the  Ei-.stcriy  ( iirnrit  rai 
by  the  action  of  violent  \V.  or  .\.W.  winds,  is  scMoni  fell,  to  the  Soulhwanl  oChii 
consequently  the  sea  abotit  the  Dernuidas,  and  thence  to  SontIuv;ird.  is  tree  frrni 
inlluence  of  this  current.  The  currents  here,  thouL''h  slow,  are  ])roduced  in  tin  ji 
tion  of  the  wind,  particularly  when  it  is  of  lonrreontinuance.  Tiiese  currents  ari  fa 
strouirer  near  the  islands  and  rocks  ot'  IJcrmndas  than  at  a  dist:;nce.  In  a  brisk  L'alel 
current  here  has  hecn  experienced  from  Iv!  to  IH  miles  in  'J  1  liours.  in  the  (liitiiior 
the  wind  ;  at,  other  times,  whrui  the  wind  was  not  seHleil,  no  current  has  hi'i-i  I'ol 

To  continued  Westerly  winds  are  to  be  attrihuied  the  common  oecurreiioc  m  aj 
sage  from  ilalilaxto  ihe  l]iiglish  Channel  in  10  or  IH  days,  with  such  curri'iitsii>t| 
which  carried  the  howsprit  ot' the  Ijittle  licit,  slooj)  of  war,  lost  near  ilalitax.  i 
months,  to  the  entrance  of  IJasque  Roads.  The  currents  of  the  Atlantic  have  sei 
the  shores  of  the  Hebrides  the  products  of  .hunaica  and  Cub;'.,  and  of  the  Soutl 
parts  of  Xorth  Americti. 

Tiie  Easterly  and  Soiilh-easteriy  currents  are  blended  in  tlieir  SouiIktm  r," 
with  the  I'lorida  or  (iuH' .Sn'cam,  liereal'icr  descrihed.  and  they  do  not  seenitojirij 
to  the  S.W.  of  the  Azores.  On  the  contrary,  to  the  W.S.W.  and  S.W.  of  th(se 
the  currents  appear  to  follow  the  course  of  the  Trade  Winds  towards  the  ('ariblj 
Sea;  and  to  l!ie  Southward  of  the  tropic  they  blend  with  the  equatorial  current,  \vl 
sets  from  E.S.E.  to  W.X.W.  and  W  .  Towards  the  West,  they  occasionally  (.\:c't( 
the  .Northward  of  the  Uermndas,  ami  even  unite  with  the  Sou. hern  eiiire  or  n  iiot 
the  Gulf  Ntrcam.  'i"he  existence  of  tlnisc  currents  has  long  been  known,  Imia  luij 
examination  and  more  precise  information  are  still  desnierata.  '1  he  recent  e.\;ii 
them  whieli  we  hav(;  to  adduce  are  not  numerous,  but  they  are  sausfactcn-y  :  tlnyj 
accord  witii  natural  facts,  and  are  in  unison  with  that  llieory  which  derives  its cun 
from  the  rotary  inoveiiuMit  of  the  cardi,  and  the  operation  of  the  Trade  Wimls. 

"  Tlu'  currents  of  the  Caribbean  Sea  are  probably  varied  by  the  inlluence  olllifi 
and  combine,  in  souh-  degree,  vv'th  the  tide,  especially^  about  I'uba,  .laniaica, ull(^

best  ])oint  of  departure  for  shijis  bound  to  ilie  North-eastward. 

At  about  3i  dcijrees  North  of  Cape  I'ltonio,  the  current  has  at  times  licpn  IbJ

But  these  cannot  be  considered  as  its  "general  directions." 

The  stream  in  mid-channel,  on  the  meridian  of  Havana,  acquires  the  dircdiui, ofl 
N.E.,  and  velocity  of  about  21  nnles  an  hour.     On  the  meridian  of  the  Sdinlici,,;,/

On  the  Cuba  side  the  .stream  is  weak,  and  it  sets  to  the  Eastv.ard.     On  tlii'  opiojl 
side,  along  the  Florida  Reefs  and  Keys,  there  is  a  re-llow  or  counter-currt'iii.sittj

In  the  .Strait  of  Florida,  within  tin;  Bahamas,  when  a  Northerly  gale  iiu'iruNts  i

]on(f.  63i  ,it  lias  been  lound  to  run  at  the  rate  ofiJ  knots  bclween  l).  by  N.  mihI  V,'\p\ 
L'ol.  Williams,  in  his  "  Thernioi  letrical  Naviixation,"  states  that  the  ■^vliirlpi,,,!,^ 
the  Northern  edgeoftlic  stream,  have  been  seen  in  lat.  41 '  57',  lonfj.  (;5  i'  l\r:t\M

in  lat.  41  '  53  ,  lonij.  H5-'  33  .  It  has  snbsecinently  been  ascertained  by  Lieut  i'l^M 
Hare,  U.  N.,  that  on  the  meridian  of  57  ^  \V.,  in  the  summer  season,  the  Nonhrri'ivj 
of  (he  ,-treani  ranires  u])  to  42J  '  N.,  and  even  in  ;.ie  winter  months  to  above 
Tliis  has  been  confirmed  by  05  voyages  across  the  Atlantic,  assisted  by  eliroiioiiit,J 
therminnetcr,  &e.,  the  last  of  whieh  was  made  in  the  fall  of  the  year  i8J4. 

It  is,  however,  to  be  considere<l,  that  a  North,  N.K.,  or  East  wind  forces  the  suni 
towards  the  coast,  contracts  its  breadth,  and  thus  increases  its  riqiidity.  On  ih,.  |.J 
trary,  S.W.,  West,  and  N.\7.  winds,  force  tlie  stream  further  info  liie  (iccaii,  ;m\ 
minish  its  strength.*  It  is  clear,  then,  that  the  stream  fluctuates  in  its  (lircftiii.,  ,,4 
force,  according  to  circtimstances,  and  no  absolute  rule  can  be  given  for  asc(riiin,ij 
its  more  ordinary  boundaries  ;  it  therefore  follows,  ihat  a  description  of  the  iii(lici,ti„|f 
by  which  it  may  be  known,  is  of  more  importance.  These  are,  tho  iippeaniiufmi 
temperature  of  the  water;  the  stream,  in  its  lower  latitudes,  and  usual  course  jn  ij 
weather,  wiiere  it  flows  uninterrupledly,  may  be  known  by  its  smooth  uud  clciirviJ 
face,  and  blue  color.  The  margin  of  the  stream  is  marked  by  a  ripfjle  on  lis  (M^ri  ;  |J 
water  in  some  places  appears  like  boiling  water,  and  in  other  ])laees  it  fonuis  likeiJ 
waters  of  a  cataract,  even  in  dead  calms,  and  in  places  which  are  fathomless,  r(/i,/ ,/,,,,  J

so  much  so  that  it  has  been  mistaken  fur  shoals  during  the  night. 

On  the  outer  edge  of  the  stream,  espeei.illy  in  fair  weather,  there  are  gro  't  ripiiiinj 
which  arc  very  perceptible  ;  and  it  has  been  observed.  b\'  many  navigators,  tliut  in  "ti|

On  the  return  |)assage,  take  your  departure,  and  run  oiriill  you  ii'.'t  into  the  wnniicsl

&  G.  \V.   Bhint,  in  1817;  and  I  would  advise  those  who  make  the  Ndrllu  in  ],iis5|

and  continue  that  course  till  you  are  within  it,  which  may  he  easily  known  In" 
temperature  of  the  water,  as  before  meiiiioiied.     1  have  always  considered  it  of 
utmost  conse(iueiice,  when  bound  in,  to  cross  the  stream  as  speedily  as  possihlp.le, 
should  he  visited     v  ciilnis  or  adverse  winds,  and  by  these  nutans  drove  fiir  ont  of

The  course  of  ships  hound  fr.nn  Eurojie  to  the  ports  of  the  United  States  is  c( 
trolled,  ill  a  great  desiree,  by  the  operation  of  the  Florida  Stream.  Little,  tlurrfc 
retpiires  to  be  added  to  the  subject  here.  Those  boiiiul  to  the  Northern  and  mjiji 
ports,  when  passing  tlic  shoal  grounds  on  (Jeorge's  Itaiik,  should  take  care  to 
between  these  shoals  and  the  stream.  Also,  in  passing  the  Nantucket  Shoals,  toki 
between  them  and  the  strciim. 

Ships  crossing  the  stream,  when  hound  to  the  Westward,  must  get  over  as  qmc] 
as  possilde  ;  or  it  is  clear  they  will  be  carried  far  out  of  their  course. 

It  has  been  remarked,  thtii  "  ships  from  seii,  approaching  any  jiart  of  the  Anurii 
coast  between  Long  Island  and  Cape  ilalteras,  if  in  doulit  about  their  rcrkcnii 
should  tike  notice  of  what  is  coiminmly  called  the  glllf-^^('ed,■■  which  is  in  [rrei 
plenty,  and  in  larger  clusters,  to  the  Eastward  of  the  (iulf  Stream  than  in  it,  wlicre 
sprig's  are  hut  small  and  few.  Within  the  stream  there  is  no  weed,  unless  in 
instances,  and  there  the  C(dor  of  the  water  changes  to  a  still  darker  and  ninddy  col 

The  "uter  edge  of  the  bank  oil"  this  part  of  the  coast  ajipears  to  be  very  steep;  f( 
has  been  frc(iuenlly  found,  that,  while  the  lead  has  been  kept  going,  there  Intve  bi 
found  15  fatlioms.  soon  after  li.'j,  and  a  mile  nearer  the  shore,  only 'Jfj  or  "Jn  I'atlioi

i-vtliat  of  the  nir  at  the  time. 

rinforiunately,  bad  weather  on  the  *J(ith  prevented  us  from  taking  an  observation 

iun;  hut  on  the  27th,  though  it  was  then  cloudy  at  noon,  we  calculated  the  lat- 

ironi  two  altitudes,  and  found  it  to  he  33"  -Jti'  N.     The  ditl'erence  of  this  latitude 

;;i;ir  which  wc  had  observed  on  the  '251  h,  being  'J""  2',i',  was  so  much  greater  than 

liiilrihiced  from  the  ship's  run,  marked  in  the  log-book,  as  to  convince  the  sea- 

;ii;it  wo  had  been  set  many  miles  to  the  Northward  !)y  the  current. 

fija  the  JStli,  at  noon,  the  longitude  by  our  reckoning  was  71^  W.,  and  I  believe  the 

nitioato  have  been  pretty  just;  but  the  soundings,  together  with  the  latitude,  will 

li-uiiic  tlie  spot  where  these  observations  were  made,  better  than  any  reckoning  from 

siwiird.    The  ship's  run  on  the  20th,  from  D  in  the  forenoon  to  4  in  the  afternoon, 

hoiit  III  leagues  on  a  N.W.  by  N.  course  ;  soon  afterwards  we  hove  to  in  orderto 

ri.iimi  liiidiiig  bottom,  we  went  very  slowly  all  night  till  noon  the  next  day. 

rFDnii  these  oliservations  I  think  it  may  be  concluded  that  the  (iulf  Stream,  about 

|i3:| ilctrroe  of  North  latitude,  and  the  7(>lh  degree  of  longitude  West  of  Greenwich, 

]:lie  month  of  April,  at  least  i'>  degrees  hotter  than  the  water  of  the  sea  through 

jihitruns.     As  the  heat  of  the  sea-water  evidently  began  to  increase  in  the  eveii- 

itl'ilie'JSth,  and  as  the  observations  show  that  we  were  getting  out  of  the  current 

(!!i!tir>t  tried  the  heat  in  the  morning  of  the  JCith ;  it  is  most  probable  that  the  ship's 

.riii::  the  night  is  nearly  the  breadth  of  the  stream,  ineasunnl  obliipiely  across: 

svit  lilew  a  fresh  breeze,  ccmlil  not  be  h'«s  than  25  leagues  in  15  hours,  t  u^  dis- 

Iceoi'iiiiie  between  the  two  observations  of  the  heat,  and  hence  the  breadth  d' llie 

>,:iini:iy  he  estimated  at  20  leagues.     The  breadtii  of  the  (Jnlf  of  Florida,  which 

ilv  bounds  the  stream  of  its  ori'jfin,  appears  by  tlie  charts  to  be  2  or  3  miles  less 

[i:i;s. cxcludinir  the  rocks  and  sand-banks  wliicli  surround  the  IJahama  Islands,  and 

:ll(iw  water  that  extends  to  a  considerable  disttmce  from  the  coast  of  Florida; 

likcorrespoudenee  of  these  measures  is  very  remarkable,  since  the  stream,  from 

IlKiiiiwn  ])riiiei|)Ies  of  hydraulics,  must  gradually  become  wider  as  it  gets  to  a 

kierdisiimce  from  the  ehaniKd  by  which  it  issues. 

I'thc  hc'iit  of  the  (.'ulf  of  Mevico  were  known,  many  curious  ca'iculaiions  might

PRl'iSQUR. — W.N.W.  J  N.,  distant  4  miles  from  the  South-western  point ofM 
sheen    isluiid,  lies  liic  little  Island  of  Prosqiie.     'I'ho  water  hero  is  sufliciciniy  ,]   " 
but  tlier*?  are  so  many  rocks  about  its  entrance,  that  it  is  rendered  thcrriiy  ditlicult 
access.      S.W.  -i  W.  2  miles   from  I'resque,  is  IIk;  IHack  Wock,  and  a  qiiurierof 
n.ilc  within   this  is  a  sunken  rock.     West  from  the  Black  Rock,  distant -2  niile 
Ib'^  Island  of  Marticot,  about  one  mile  in  lenp,tii,  and  half  a  mile  broad.    Within  ti 
Black  Rock  and  Marticot  Island  lie  the  Harbors  of  La  Perche  and  Little  and  Gn 
Paradise., 

LA    PKIU'HE  runs  in  to  the  Northward  of  the  Black  Rmk.     Its  enlii.nce  isdi 
cult,  and  there  is  no  good  anehoraire.     Little  Paradise  lies  to  the  Westward  of 
Perche,  and  to  the  Northward  of  the  East  jioint  of  Marticot  Island.     Tlie  onhsi 
anchoraqre  is  in  a  cove,  at  the  head  of  the  harbor,  on  the  port  side;  thtrc  voumi 
moor  to  the  sliore,  and  lie  land-locked.     Groat  Paradise  is  fit  only  for  boiUs;  "it  Ijj. 
the  Westward  of  Little  i'aradisc.     Between  the  North-western  point  of  Manjcot 
the  main  is  Fox  Island :  between  these  islands  is  a  safe  passage  into  I'aradisp  Sou: 
with  nine  fathoms;  but  vessels  must  never  attempt  going  between  Fox  Island  and 
main. 

PARADISE  SOUND.— To  the  Westward  of  Fox  Island  about  one  milr  isihc 
trance  to  Paradise  Sound,  extending  N.E.  by  E.  4  leagues,  and  being  aliomai] 
broad,  having  very  deep  water  throughout,  and  no  safe  anchorage,  cxcej/t  iit  iish^ 
Just  within  the  sound,  on  its  Eastern  side,  is  a  cove,  with  10  fathoms  water ;  but  ihi 
are  several  rocks  above  water  in  it,  and  the  bottom  is  rocky,  so  that  you  cannot 
anchor  there.  In  passing  to  the  Nortii-westward  of  Fox  Island,  there  is  a  suiikinn 
which  must  l)c  iivoided.  To  the  South  westivanl  of  Paradise  Sound  lies  boiitcisl; 
running  W.S.W.  i  S.  about  3i  miles:  it  is  principally  high  land,  making  in  sen 
peaks. 

PETIT  FORT  HARBOR.— One  mile  to  the  Westward  of  Paradise  Sound  lies  Pi 
Fort  Harbor,  a  very  good  inlet,  having  in  it  from  14  to  7  fathoms  water,  (xondgro 
The  entrance  is  more  than  a  quarterof  a  mile  wide,  and  lies  N.h].,  distant  rmiilts 
the  Sout'.i  point  of  Long  Island,  and  N.  by  E.  i!i  miles  from  the  North  point  (if  the  s 
There  is  no  danger  in  going  in;  and  the  best  iincliorage  is  on  the  starboard  (ir  Kasl 
sidT,  for  S.E.  winds  heave  in  a  great  swell  on  the  Westcn  shore,  when  ii  blows 
No  isuch  Harbor  has  no  good  anchorage. 

CAPE  ROliER  ilARlJOR  lies  close  to  the  Westward  of  Cape  Roger,  which ii 
high,  round,  barren  head,  lying  N.  i  E.  Sjs  miles  from  the  South  point  of  Ltinirlsii 
Tiiero  iiro  several  low  rocks  ann  islands  lying  ofi' the  Eastern  ])()int  of  llii' cutrai 
In  the  haW)or,  at  a  quarter  of  a  mile  within,  on  the  W'estern  side,  lies  a  small  isliirn 
the  Nortliward  of  \vliich,  between  it  and  the  main,  is  a  very  good  anchonige  in* 
fathoms  water,  or  further  up  in  6  or  7  fathoms. 

(;REAT  GALLOWS  HARBOR.— N.N. W.  2  miles  from  the  South  poii:t  of 
Island,  lies  a  small  green  island,  which  has  a  shoal  all  round,  to  nearly  a  Ciildc'slcni 
From  Greeti  Island  N.N.W.  2\  miles,  lies  Great  Gallows  Harbor  Island,  wiiich  i* 
Vessels  may  pass  on  either  side  of  ihis  island  into  Great  Gallows  Harbor,  whic 
one  mile  to  the  E.N.E.  of  the  island.  In  this  harbor  is  exceedingly  good  aixiiorai 
7  fathoms  water,  on  the  starboard  side,  just  within  a  low  slony  point,  talciiif; ca; 
give  the  point  a  small  berth,  in  order  to  avoid  a  iock,  which  is  alternately  covered 
uncovered  with  the  tide. 

LITTLE  GALLOWS  HARBOR  lies  close  round  to  the  Eastward  of  Great  Gall( 
Harbor,  and  is  only  fit  for  small  vessels,  which  must  be  moored  to  the  sliiirc.  A 
above  water  lies  at  the  entrance,  and  the  two  harbors  are  only  divided  iiy  n  na 
neck  of  find.  To  the  North-westward  of  Great  (iallows  Harbor  are  Little  H: 
Bay  dc  L"l']au,  and  Boat  Harbor  :  the  first  of  (hose  is  only  fit  for  boats.  I!ayi''-'L' 
runs  in  a  full  league,  and  has  deep  water  all  the  way  up,  except  at  its  head,  ulicretl 
appears  a  sandy  l)each.     Here  vessels  may  ride  in  3  fiithoms. 

BOAT  HAlinOR  lies  round  the  Western  jioint  of  Bay  do  L'Eau,  ofi'whichisn 
above  water.  This  harbor  runs  up  N.E.  3  miles,  with  deep  water,  until  you  ptji.ei 
furth(!r  end.  The  land  from  hence  runs  vSouth-wcslward  to  Bane  Harbor;  iliisl 
the  main  land,  and  is  fronted  by  several  islands,  the  largest  of  which  is  called 
Island,  being  two  miles  in  length,  and  one  in  breadth.  The  other  ishmds  nren 
Gooseberry,  Petticoat,  Gull,  and  Jerseyman's  Islands,  and  are  situated  buluceii 
Island  and  the  main. 

BANE  HARIJOR  is  a  good  place  for  small  vessels;  its  entrance  is  narrow, but 
you  arc  within  it.  there  is  sutncicnt  room  to  moor,  with  3  fathoms  water.  The 
good  channels  belvvecji  all  these  islands,  through  which  vessels  nay  pass  tn  ihe 
bors  at  (ho  Northward.  One  mile  and  three-quarters  S.W.  from  Banc  Harbor ii 
shoon,  too  shallow  for  any  vessels;  and  aijout  the  same  distance  from  Hiisiioi

THK  following  dircet  ions  fornavi(jfatin>r  this  (Jul  fare  taken,  with  some  altemtioiisi 
to  arran(.fenient,  from  tliose  of  Captain  II.  \V.  Haylield,  U.  N.,  who  litis  been  ciii|ilove 
in  a  minute  survey  of  this  (iulf  for  some  years. 

The  main  entrance  into  this  (Julf  is  between  (^ape  Ray,  the  South-western  iioim 
Newfoundland,  and  Cape  North,  (he  North-east  point  of  Cape  Hreton  Island, 

{cK. — AiiKwiir  the  dilliculties  of  inivijfation  may  be  men(i()ned  (he  ice.  In  sjirinirtlJ 
eiiiranee  and  Eastern  parts  of  tiie  (lulf  are  frequently  covered  with  it,  aiidvcsxls; 
sometimes  beset  for  many  days.  Heinir  unlittcd  for  eontendin^f  with  this  diiM(r(r, ih^ 
often  sutler  from  it,  iiiid  are  oceasionally  lost;  but  serious  accidents  from  tliis  nmset 
not  friHjuently  occur,  becausi;  the  ice  is  ^em'rally  in  a  meltinp;  state  frcnn  the  powtrft 
cflect  of  the  sun  in  sprinir.  In  the  fall  aC  the  yetir  aecideiits  from  ic(!  seldom  occur e| 
cei)t  when  the  winter  counuences  suddeidy,  or  when  vesscds  liiifrer  iinprudi'iitlvl 
from  the  temptation  of  ohtaiiiinfr  lii(fh  frei^hls. 

Foii.s. — lint  all  danger  from  ice  is  far  less  than  that  which  arises  from  the  irtv^ 
leiicc  of  f()^■s  ;   they  may  occur  at  any  tim(!  durinjj;  the  o|)cn  or  navijfable  season,  Imt a 
nio.sl  frequent  in  the  early  |>urt  of  suimner.     They  arc  rtirc,  and  never  of  lontrcumind 
ance  durinjj  Westerly  winds,  but  seldom  fail  to  accomjiany  an  Easterly  wind  of  aa 
strength  or  duration.     'I'he  above  general  observation  is  subject,  however,  to  rcsiri 
tion,iici'ortlin!f  to  loc:ility  or  seiison.     Thus  winds  between  the  South  and  Wcst.wliid 
are  usuiilly  clear-weather  winds  above  Anticosti,  are  frequently  aceonq)aiiit'ihvitli M 
in  the  Eastern  parts  of  the  (iulf.     \\  inds  Ixttween  the  South  and  Ea^t  are  iiliiuisii 
ways  accompanied  with  rain  and  fog  in  every  |)ar(.     E.N.E.  winds,  above  I'dimt 
Monts,  are  often  E.S.E.  or  S.E.  winds  in  the  Oulf,  changed  in  direction  by  tliilii 
lands  of  the  South  coast,  and  have  therefore  in  general  the  same  foggy  cliiiraciir. 
speak  of  winds  of  eonsideniblc  strength  and  duration,  and  which  probably  extenilovi 
great  distances.     Moderate  and  |)artial  fme-wi'titlicr  winds  may  occur  without  fusi 
any  season,  jind  in  any  locality.     In  the  e!irl\  part  of  the  navigable  season,  espniall 
in  tlie  months  of  April  and  May,  clear-weather  N.E.  winds  are  of  frequent  occiirrdia 
and  they  also  sometimes  occur  at  other  seasons,  in  every  part  of  the  Oulf  and  Hivd 
St.  Lawrence. 

The  fogs  sometimes  last  several  days  in  succession,  and  to  a  vessel  either  runiiiiij 
up  or  beating  down,  during  their  eoniinuanee,  there  is  no  safe  guide  but  the  coiistai 
use  of  the  deep-sea  lead,  with  a  chiirt  containing  correct  soundings. 

The  fogs  wliicii  accompany  Easterly  gales,  e.vtend  high  U|)  in  the  atmospliere, aij 
cannot  be  looked  over  from  any  part  of  the  rigging  of  a  ship.  They,  liowcver.arti 
so  tiiick  as  those  which  occur  in  calms  after  a  strong  wind,  and  which  are  (Vtqutiii^ 
so  dense  as  to  conceal  a  vessel  within  hail;  whilst  the  former  often,  but  not  ahvajl 
admit  the  land,  or  other  objects,  to  be  distinguished  at  the  distance  of  hull'  a  mile  i 
in')re  in  the  daytime. 

The  dense  fogs  which  occur  in  calms,  or  even  in  very  light  winds,  often  extend  onl 
to  small  elevations  above  the  sea ;  so  that  it  sometimes  happens,  that  when  ohjcd 
arc  hidden  at  the  distance  of  .'>()  yards  from  the  deck,  they  can  plainly  be  seen  bviif 
son  50  or  CO  feet  up  the  rigging.  In  the  months  of  October  and  Novcmher  the  l'o| 
and  rain  that  accompany  Easterly  gales  are  replaced  by  thick  snow,  which  cm 
equal  embarrassment  to  (he  navigator. 

Winds. — The  prevailing  winds  during  the  navigable  season,  are  cither  directlv I

aior,  becomes  particuhirly  so  in  such  setisons :  and  the  follov.iiig  rcniiirks  ui)on  its 
Jeneriii  indications,  when  taken  in  connecti(jn  with  the  usual  course  of  the  winds  tind 
|eiilierin  the  St.  Lawrence,  may,  therefore,  be  useful.  The  barometer  has  a  range 
■J9  to  30.5  inches  in  the  (iiilf  tmd  Hiver  of  St.  LawTence  during  the  navigable 
ka^nn.  iinJ  its  changes  accompany  those  of  the  winds  and  wetither  with  a  considera- 
EdejTrec  of  constancy.  The  fluctuations  of  the  barometric  column  are  much  great o  r 
Iniorc  frequent  than  in  lower  latitudes;  and  the  sudden  alterations  which,  jn 
hlicr climates,  Avould  be  alarming,  may  occur  there  without  being  folkiwed  by  any 
[Drrespoiiding  change  either  in  the  wind  or  weather.  Hut  the  navigator  should  not 
eiiiattentive  to  those  minor  changes,  as  a  constant  attcnti(m  to  the  instrument  can 
lone  enable  him  to  appreciufe  those  decisive  indications  of  the  nuTcury  whii  h  sel- 
I  or  never  |)rove  deceptive.  The  following  remarks  will  ap|)ly  to  those  well- 
larkcd  changes  which  usually  indicate  tbeapjjroaeh  of  ii  gale  of  considerable  strength, 
ta  shift  of  wind  and  weather;  the  correct  anticipiition  of  which  is  often  of  the 
most  consequence  to  the  safety  of  u  vessel,  as  well  as  to  the  bnigtli  of  her  voyage.

several  days  tofjethcr,  aloiijr  the  West  coast  of  Newfoundland.     This  stream  occnsion- 
ally  sets  froniPoint  Fercdle   obliquely  across  the  strait  towards  Forteau  Hay,    Snmp. 
times,  and  especially  with  N.K.  winds,  the  current  nins  directly  in  an  o])|insite  diipp! 
tion,  alonpr  the  West  coast  of  Newfoundland,  from  Point  KeroUe  jiast  Point  |{i,.|,     ^^ 
short,  there  is  no  constancy  either  in  the  rale  or  set  of  these  streams,  for  tlic  windj  I 
and  the  irregular  tides  modity  the  set  and  rate  of  the  ecjually  irregular  currents,  In  ' 
a  manner  which  it  is  extremely  ditFicult,  if  not  impossible,  to  calculate  upon  witluiny 
decree  of  certainty.     Tho  prevalent  current  from  the  Norihward  conies  from  bitwccn  I 
Uelle  Isle  and  the  coast  of  Labrador.     It  is  often  at  the  temperature  of  the  frce:init\ 
point,  brinfTing  many  icebergs  into  the  strait,  and  consequcntl    carrying  tlieni  'JiromrU 
it  many  miles  up  the  gulf,    ^ome  of  these  bergs  ground  indcej  water,  whilst  ntliersare 
continually  changing  their  positions.     They  are  much  more  ii'imerous  in  soiiui  stMsonj 
than  I'll  others,  a,-.  I  have  seen  200  bergs  and  large  pieces  of  ice  in  the  strait  in  thcmonty 
of  August,  in  one  year,  whilst  there  were  not  above  half  a  dozen  to  be  srcii  in 
sauu'  month  of  the  f(dlowing  season. 

I  have  observed  this  current  from  the  Northward  and  Ea:  tward,  assist' d  byaXK,  I 
wind,  running  full  2  miles  an  hour,  whilst  at  other  times  it  was  almost  insensible,! 
It  is  even  reported  thai  there  is  sometimes  a  current  in  the  opposite  direction,  iiml  Iho. 
licve  that  this  r('i>ort  of  the  fishermen  is  correct,  especially  during  the  ebij-iide,  nndl 
when  S.W.  winds  prevail  in  the  gulf.  At  the  same  time  that  this  current  is  nnniinJ 
to  the  Westward,  there  is  at  times  a  stream  of  water  running  out  to  the  Eastward  c 
the  Newfoundland  side,  especial-y  during  the  ebb-tide. 

From  these  remarks  it  will  plainly  appear  that  the  navigation  of  this  strait  is  at-l 
tended  with  very  great  danger  in  dark  or  foggy  nights,  during  which  no  vessel  sliniilii| 
attempt  to  run  through,  for  1  have  found  that,  with  all  our  experience,  we  could  nml 
sure  of  the  vessefs  [)osition  within  10  miles,  under  such  circumstances.    On  tlieai> 
proach  of  a  dark  or  foggy  night,  therefore,  it  would  be  prudent  to  anelior  in  soin( 
of  the  bays  on  the  North  side  of  the  strait,  r.ither  than  to  contimio  under  way..   A  vf  j 
sel  bound  in  to  the  gulf,  and  running  with  an  Easterly  wind,  will,  however,  find  nojilac* 
fit  for  that  purpose  ujtil  she  arrives  at  iJlack  Bay,  and  that  is  not  a  very  goodaiichorj 
age,  for  Ued  Bay  cannot  be  entered  by  a  large  vessel  with  an  Easterly  wind.    Loiif 
Bay  is  the  first  good  anchorage  under  such  circumstances,  and  there  tiie  vessel  wnul 
be  so  far  advanced  in  her  run  through  the  strait,  that  it  would  not  be  worili  while  | 
stop,  since  she  miixht  easily  clear  everything  in  the  remaining  short  (listanci',   liii| 
with  a  S.W.  wind,  at  the  approach  of  night,  and  ai)])earance  ot'  a  fog,  a  vessel  bourn 
out  through  the  strait  to  the  Eastward,  had  better  stand  otl-and-on  under  easy  sail] 
taek'.igby  her  deep-sea  lead  from  the  Newfoundland  side  till  morning,  if  she  be  notl'ui 
ther  to  the  Eastward  than  Point  Ferollc.     If  she  be  furtlu'r  advanced,  she  luulhfiiei 
endeavor  to  make  Forteau  Bay  before  dark,  and  anchor  there  for  the  night.    In  \\m 
winds  or  calms,  during  dark  nights  or  foggy  weather,  it  is  better  to  bring  uj)«iih;lii 
st.*eam  anchor  anywhere  in  the  strait,  than  to  drive  about  with  (he  tides,  without knofli 
iiig  whither ;  but  (hen  a  lookout  must  i)c  kept  for  drifting  icebergs. 

ISLAND  OF  ST.  PAUL. — Vessels  bound  to  Canada,  or  to  any  of  tho  pons  in tla 
Gulf  of  St.  Iiawrence,  should  endeavor  to  make  the  Island  of  St.  Paul,  wliieli,  l.iiii| 
of  considc'iible  elevation,  and  bold  all  round,  .nay,  with  care  and  a  good  lonkoiil 
be  made  at  night,  or  even  in  logs,  unless  the  former  be  very  dark,  or  the  latter  vii) 
thick. 

On  this  island  there  are  two  light-houses  erected  :  one  on  the  Ni»rtliern  cxfron 
130  feet  high,  containing  a  fixed  light.     This  light  can  be  seen  on  any  bearinr;,  c^ 
cepting  between  N.  by  E.  and  E.  by  N.,  when  it  is  obscured  by  the  hills  to  tlu' 
ward  of  it.     'I'he  Southern  light  can  be  seen  on  any  hearing,  exce])t  between  !^.S,1 
and  W.,  when  it  is  obscured  by  the  hills  to  the  N.  of  it. 

This  island  lies  in  the  main  entrance  to  the  Gulf  of  St.  Lawrence,  between Caj 
Ray,  at  the  S.'tV.  extremity  of  Newfoundland,  and  Cape  North,  near  the  .NUriiieJ 
extrcmitv  of  Cape  Breton  Island.  From  the  South  point  of  tlu;  Island  of  St.  PaJ 
Cape  North  bears  W.S.  W.  i  W.  by  compass,*  distant  13  miles ;  and  from  the  Nn 
i-oint  of  the  same  island, Cape  Bay  bears  E.  by  N.,  distant  ILi  miles.  In  apjirdiuh 
St.  Paul  fnuii  the  S.E.  with  Northerly  winds,  the  current,  which  is  at  times eonii^ 
from  the  Northward,  and  setting  towards  the  shore  of  Ca()0  I'lelon,  should  beL'iiardl 
against.  The  South  Coast  of  Newfoundland,  Eastward  of  Cajie  Kay,  is  brok^ 
rocky,  and  dangerous.  The  tid'3s  and  currents,  being  inlluenced  by  the  wind*

M  I'liul  Isiund  is  2.",,  miles  long  by  one  mile  broad.     Its  N.E.  point  is  a  small  de-

!\  .pjy  imrrow  channel  from  a  peninsula,  betwct^n  3  and  IGO  feet  high  ;  which,  to- 
Vlier  with  the  isthmus,  is  so  preciriitous  as  to  be  n(  irly  inaccessible.     The  renuiin- 

^^  jreater  part  of  tu'i  island,  vvliich  is  also  very  stecj)  and  precipitous  towards  the 
1ms  two  parallel  ranges  of  bills,  that  on  the  Atlantic  coast  being  the  highest, 

''uitiiiniiig  an  elevation  ;)f  v.h'jut  150  feet.     A  valley  runs  tlirough  between  thuse 

'",'.'  hiiving  two  small  lakes  or  ponds,  2  or  300  feet  above  the  sea.  These  sujiply  the 
'*':')  sitream  on  the  island,  which  is  about  a  fathom  wide,  of  yellowish-brown 

'^  inr  well  tasted  and  wholesome,  and  descending  into  the  sea  in  the  Southern  part 
rrrinitV  Cove.  There  are  several  other,  but  much  smaller,  runs  of  water,  one  of 
hich  is  in*o  Atlantic  Cove.     These  two  coves  are  nearly  a  mile  from  the  S.W.  ex- 

t*  mitv  of  tl^6  island,  the  first  being  on  the  Gulf  side,  and  the  other  on  that  which  is 
ivnrJs  the  Atlantic,  as  its  name  implies.  They  atlbrd  the  only  shelter  tor  boats, 
.  lihe  only  good  landing  on  the  island,  which  is  easier  of  ascent  from  them  than  at 

'v  other  part.     OtV  the  two  coves  just  mentioned,  small  tishing-schooners  anchor, 

^th  the  wind  off  shore,  in  10  or  12  fathoms,  sand  and  gravel  bottom,  and  at  the  dis- 
iiceof  'i  cables'  h^ngtii  from  the  rocks.     In  very  fine  weather,  large  vessels  might 

tcnture  to  ride  with  a  stream  anchor,  in  from  25  to  30  fathoms,  about  half  a  mile  olf 

shore :  but  should  be  in  constant  readiness  to  weigh  at  the  first  sign  of  a  change  in 

the  wind  or  weather.     Further  otf  shore  the  water  becomes  extremely  deep,  as  will 

be  seen  in  the  chart,  so  that  there  is  little  or  no  warning  by  the  lead  in  approaching 

ihisisland  in  foggy  weather. 
The  irreiruiarity  of  the  tidal  streams  and  currents  add  much  to  the  danger  arising 

from  the  fogs,  which  prevail  in  Southerly,  Easterly,  and  often  also  with  S.W.  winds. 

Durinff  the  whole  of  a  fine  calm  day,  at  the  end  of  June,  we  observed  the  current  to 

scitothc  S.E.  at  the  rate  of  one  knot,  past  the  North  point  of  the  island. 

Alter  having  made  St.  Paul,  vessels  bound  to  Canada  should  endeavor,  if  the  we  thcr 
bcclcnr,  to  make  the  Uird  Rocks,  the  largest  or  South  easternmost  of  which  bears 
from  the  North  point  of  St.  Paul,  N.N.VV.  1  W.,  55  miles. 

There  is  a  deep  channel  between  vSt.  Paul  and  the  bank  Oii  which  the  Magdalens, 
Drvon  Island,  and  the  Uird  Rocks  are  situated.     This  channel  is  12  miles  wide,  and 
no  soundings  have  been  found  in  it  with  CO  fathoms  of  line.     Twelve  miles  N.W. 
from  St.  Paul,  or.  the  S.E.  extremity  of  the  bank  above-mentioned,  there  arc  50  fath- 
oms of  water,  over  a  bottom  of  fine  .*iand  ;  and  13;^  miles  from  the  island,  on  the  same 
line  of  bearing,  there  are  35  fathoms,  tlie  bottom  being  the  same,  with  the  occasional 
addition  of  gravel.  From  this  jioint  the  water  shoals  gradually  towards  the  Magdalens, 
distiint  12  miles.    Following  the  Eastern  edge  of  the  bank  to  the  Northward,  inclining 
mdually  to  the  N.W.,  regular  soundings  extend  from  28  to  35  fathoms,  over  sand, 
stones,  and  broken  shells ;  tlie  latter  depth  being  where  th(  Great  liird  Rock  bears  \V. 
fathoms,  over  fine  sand,  on  the  edge  of  the  bank,  off  which  there  is  no  bottom  with  70 
N.W.;  and  when  the  same  rock  bears  VV. S.W.  ^  W.,  distant  13i  miles,  there  will  be  50 
fathoms  of  line.     At  the  distance  of  10  miles  from  the  rock,  and  on  the  same  line  of 
liaring,  there  are  43  fathoms  ;  and  at  6  miles,  33  fathoms  ;  shoaling  gradually  in  to 
•,1  fathoms  within  a  mile  of  the  rocks.     This  bank  is  an  c:,-cellent  guide  up  to  the  Rird 
Kocks  at  night,  or  in  thick  weather,  which  almost  always  accompanies  Easterly  and 
Southerly  winds ;  but  under  such  circumstances  it  will  be  safer  to  run  along  the  North- 
ern ef1"'c  of  the  bank,  taking  care  not  to  come  into  less  than  40  fathoms,  than  to  attempt 
10  iiKike  the  Bird  Rocks.     When  well  past  them  by  the  reckoning,  a  course  can  be 
shaped  up  the  gulf. 

!:;  Northerly  winds  the  weather  is  usually  clear;  and  if  the  ship  be  far  enough  to 
".vimiward,  it  will  be  advisable  to  stand  to  the  Westward,  and  endeavor  to  make  Entry 
Island,  taking;  care  to  avoid  Doyh^  Reef  and  the  sandy  spit  ofl'  the  East  end  of  the  Mag- 
dalens, by  not  approaching  the  islands  in  that  jiart  nearer  tliaii  20  fathoma.  Under  the 
lee  of  these  islands  a  smooth  sea  will  l)e  found,  snflicient  guidance  by  the  soundings, 
andsood  shelter  and  excellent  anchorage  in  Pleasant  Bay. 

,\nother  jidvantage  of  following  this  course  arises  from  the  circumstance  that  the  N. 
W.  winds  very  generally  veer  to  the  S.W.,  so  that,  if  a  vessel  has  passed  to  leeward 
of  the  Magdalens  with  the  Northerly  or  N.W.  winds  on  the  starboard  tack,  the  suc- 
ceeding S.W.  wind  will  enable  her  to  stand  on  the  opposite  tack  towards  ('ajie  Ciaspc. 

From  the  North  point  of  the  Island  of  St.  Paul  to  the  I'ast  point  of  the  Magdalens 
the  course  is  N.W.  i  W".,  distance  50  miles  ;  and  to  Entry  Island,  N.W.  by  W.  i  W., 
fi3  miles. 

From  the  North  Bird  Rock  the  light-house  on  the  S.W.  point  of  the  Island  of  Anti-  Light-horist. 
costi hears  N.  4G-'  13'  W.,  true,  or  N.N.W.,  by  compass,  134  miles;  and  the  East  point 
of  Anficosti,  N.  14'^  46'  W.,  true,  or  N.  i  E.,  by  compass,  80  miles.

i'LHASANT  RAY.  -Pleasant  Ray  is  the  best  roadstead  in  the  Magdalens,  and  the  Vlai.-nnl 
loilvoiif  where  vessels  can  venture  to  lie  with  all  winds  during  the  three  finest  months  Baij. 

.I'^iiiiinipr.  .lime,  .Inly,  and  Au;rnsl.  In  thos(>  months,  a  gab'  of  wind  from  the  Kast- 
iwiFil,  so  heavy  as  to  endauger  a  vessel  with  good  anchors  and  cables,  does  not  occur 
I  iiiovc  once  in  I!  or  1  years.  The  riding,  liow(;ver.  is  often  heavy  and  rough  enough  in 
I\orih-east  gales,  :iiid  a  v(!ssel  should  he  well  moored  with  a  whole  cable  on  each  an- 

(iior. imojieii  hawse  to  leeward,  and  all  snug  aloft. 
The  lirsl  and  most  sheltered  anchorage  is  in  \  fathoms,  with  the  rocky  point  of  cn- 
hnni'c  of  Amherst  Harbor  bearing  S.\V.  4  VV.,  two-thirds  of  a  mile,  and  a  little  more 

nan  half  a  nile  from  high-waler  mark  on  (In;  sandy  beach  to  the;  Southward,  when  a 

Mnikahle  and  high  sand-hill  will  bear  8.  A  V..  A  large  ship  should  anchor  further 
Id, ami  should  take  noiice  that  tluTe  an;  only  from  3  to  ',\\  fathoms  in  one  part  of  the 

i;v,  as  will  Ix' seen  ill  the  chart.     'i"he  bottom  is  everywhere  excellent  for  holding, 

sill  lit' red  sandy  clay.     A  vessel,  anchort'd  as  1  have  recommended,  will  be  sheltered

[ciMitly.  have  only  15  lioiiits  completely  o|i(!ii.     ICven  when  the  wind  comes  right  in, 

iht^oa  is  much  lessened  by  luissingoverso  much  of  shoal  water;  nevertheless,  I  am  of 
|o?iiiiiiii  that  tlu!  attempt  to  ride  out  a  heavy  Masterly  gale,  either  before  June,  or  after 
jAuiust,  would  be  attended  with  great  danger,  and  do  not  reconuneiid  Pleasant  Ray 
li<  ii  pleasant  jilace  under  such  ciri'mnstane(!s  at  any  time  of  the  year.  In  Ihe  Nor- 
[liKmand  Western  parts  of  the  bay,  sandy  flats  extend  more  than  a  n.ile  from  the  beach. 

SANDY  HOOK  CHANNKL.— From  the  Sandy  Hook  to  the  N.W.  point  of  Entry  Simdy  Ilw,h. 
ili'aiiJ,  the  bearing  is  l"l.,  by  compass,  2\  miles.     There  is  an  extensive  flat  sandy  Channi-I.

and  is  divided  by  the  T'ittst  point  of  Hip  Mii(fi!iil('ns.  One  hrnnrli  of  tlin  strcntn  set 
stroiinly  over  tiio  Lon^  spit,  wliicli,  witii  (lie  Old  Hurry  Head  and  (lie  siionls  oli' it 
turn  it  oil"  to  the  Soul ii- westward  (owards  llntry  Isiaml,  leaviiijr  nearly  slaek  wutcrin 
the  liay  l)etween  (^offiti  Island  and  ('ii\h'  Alriirlit,  and  also  in  Pleasant  Hay.  The  oilu., 
liraneii,  (o  tlie  Northward  of  tiie  islands,  follows  the  shore  from  Mast  I'oinI  rouml  ^ 
the  South-west  eape  of  Amherst  Island,  whenec  the  jrreater  part  of  the  strenia  ron. 
tinues  its  course  to  the  S.W.  ;  whilst  the  remainder,  lollowing  the  shore,  nuis  rouiid 
and  along  the  Southern  coast  of  Amherst  Ishuid,  until  it  meets  the  hefore-iiicniJDin.,! 
other  branch  of  the  stream  from  the  Mast  ]/(>int  settiiip  off  the  Mast  side  nf  Untn 
Island;  it  is  overcome  by  (his  other  braneh,  and  turi!"ii  ffradually  round  tojojiitiij 
general  weak  stream  of  Hood  to  the  Westward  in  the  offing. 
Ebb  Stream.  Kun  Stream. — On  the  S.E.  side  of  the  islands,  the  stream  of  the  ehh-tidp  sets 
strongly  out  of  the  lagoons  and  out  of  Pleasant  Hay,  between  the  Sandy  Hooi;  ,,pj 
Entry  Island.  It  is  also  often  found  running  to  the  Westward  along  the  Souihcm 
shores  of  Andicrst  Island,  and  right  round  it  in  like  manner,  but  contrary  in  dircciioti 
to  the  course  of  the  (lood  already  described.  In  the  offing,  at  the  same  tinie,  ihp 
stream  of  ebb  is  from  the  S.W.,  and  sets  over  the  sand-spit  ofl"  Sandy  Hook  Pdint 
where  it  meets  the  stream  from  the  N.W  ,  which  has  tbilowed  the  North  shore  of  the 
islands,  round  from  Amherst  Island  to  the  East  point.  The  meeting  of  these  iwo 
streams  of  the  ebb-tide,  together  with  the  shoalness  of  the  water,  causes  so  hciiwa 
breaking  sea  in  strong  Easterly  winds,  that  the  fishing  shallops  dare  not  v  ture  at 
times,  to  pass  the  point. 

The  rate  of  either  stream  seldom  amounts  to  a  knot,  excepting  close  .  .shore,  or 
round  the  points.  The  ebb,  however,  is  generally  the  strongest  stream,  nditsrnu 
is  increased  by  Westerly  winds,  as  is  that  of  the  (lood  by  winds  from  the    iastwiinj 

DEADMAN  ISLET.— The  Deadman  bears  N.  52  W.  7;|  miles  nearly  from  the 
West  cape  of  the  Magdalcns,  and  is  very  small,  being  not  more  than  300  ("athomslonf. 
in  an  E.S.E.  direction,  and  less  than  half  that  breadth.  It  is  about  170  feel  liii.4 
with  steeply  sloping  sides,  meeting  at  the  summit  like  a  prism,  so  that  when  seen  end 
on,  it  resembles  a  pyramid.  When  seen  from  a  distance,  with  its  longest  side  pre. 
sented  to  view,  its  outline  very  much  resembles  (hat  of  a  body  laid  out  for  hurial 
from  which  circumstance  its  name  is  derived.  It  is  composed  l)rineipall\  of  trapl 
rocks,  and  when  seen  close  to,  on  a  bright  sunny  day,  with  the  white  surf  diishinj 
against  its  variously  colored  sides,  it  is  a  very  beautiful  object.  It  is  so  hold  on  the 
West  side,  that  a  vessel  may  pass  within  a  couple  of  cables'  length  with  perfect 
safety;  but  a  reef  extends  towards  Amherst  Island  one-third  of  a  mile. 

About  a  mile  to  the  Northward  of  it  there  is  a  rocky  (ishing-ground  with  ft  fatliomsl 
least  water  ;  and  6  miles  S.S.W.  i  W.  of  it,  there  is  another  with  11  fathoms.  There 
is  no  danger  nearer  than  the  "  White  Horses,"  to  be  mentioned  hereafter,  and  vessels  I 
may  safely  pass  between  it  and  Amherst  Island.     It  is,  however,  much  in  the  way  of  I 
vessels  jjassing  round  (he  West  c  ad  of  the  Magdalcns,  and  they  should  beware  of  it  atf 
night,  or  in  foggy  weather,  fer  (he  lead  will  give  liltle  warning,  since  there  is  nearly 
as  much  water  within  half  a  mile  of  it,  as  at  the  distance  of  several  niiles. 
Bryon  BRYON  ISLAND,  which  is  uninhabited,  is  rather  more  than  4  miles  lonp.  in  aW. 

Island.  by  N.   and   E.  by  S.  direction,  with  the  extreme  breadth  of  rather  more  Ihfin  a  niile.j 

Its  Eastern  end  bears  from  the  East  ])oint  of  the  Magdalcns,  N.  by  E.  A  E.,  lOi  miles;! 
but  its  S.W.  point  approaches  to  within  8^  niiles  of  the  N(  ith  cape  of  these  islands.! 

A  great  part  of  the  island  is  wooded  with  dwarf  spruce-trees,  and  there  is  a  lar^ej 
upland  tract  covered  with  good  native  grass.  Water  is  neither  plentiful  nor  easy  tol 
be  obtained,  but  it  may  be  had  in  small  quantities  by  digging,  and  there  is  a  sprinjonl 
the  North  side  of  the  narrow  isthmus  w  Inch  joins  the  Eastern  peninsula  to  the  re-[ 
mainder  of  the  island. 

I  had  no  opportunity  of  measuring  the  height  of  Bryon  Island  ;  but  I  conceive  itl 
nowhere  exceeds  200  feet  above  the  sea.  The  clifls  on  the  North  side  are  muchl 
higher  thtm  those  on  the  South,  where  there  are  several  small  coves  in  which  boatJ 
may  land  easily  with  the  wind  ofi'  .shore.  There  are  three  reefs  ofl'  IJryon  Island! 
one  oflf  its  East  end  extends  near  three-quarters  of  a  mile  to  (he  North-eastward;! 
another,  ofl!"  the  W.  end,  extends  \h  mile  to  the  Westward  ;  and  the  third,  oil" the  sandjf 
S.W.  point,  \h  mile  to  the  Southward.  No  marks  can  be  given  for  clcariiiir  ilica 
reefs  ;  but  the  bearing  of  the  land,  as  shown  in  the  chart,  will  afford  sifficienlfiuiila 
to  the  seaman.  The  reef  off" the  S.W.  jjoint  is  so  nuich  in  the  way  of  vessels  passin[ 
between  it  and  the  Magdalcns,  that  it  may  be  useful  to  add,  that  from  the  Soutlieit 
ridge  of  this  reef,  Brj'on  Island  subtends  an  angle  of  97"'  ;  so  that  with  the  is' 
subtending  any  less  angle,  the  reef  may  be  passed.  The  South  reef  assists  ffreatljl 
in  turning  ofT  the  sea  from  the  roadstead  to  the  Eastward  of  it,  where  vessels  niafl 
safely  anchor  in  6  fathoms  water  and  a  sandy  bottom,  at  the  distance  of  a  mile  or| 
more  from  the  shore,  and  with  all  Aviiids  from  N.E.  round  by  N.  to  W.N.VV.  Sinalll 
vessels,  in  heavy  N.W.  gales,  lie  at  anchor  close  under  the  reef.

tfrniisc  codfish  abound  ujmn  them.  There  is  one  wiih  11  fathcmis  of  water,  i2i  miles 
Vortii  of  liryon  Island,  and  which  extends  a  eonsiderable  distance  parallel  to  the 
iiianii.  There  is  sandy  bottom,  and  a  greater  depth  of  waler,  within  this  ridge,  and 
5fssel3  may  anchor,  in  fine  weather  and  Southerly  winds,  oil"  the  bay  on  the  North 
(jileof  the  island.  The  soundings  extend  s(»  far  otV  Mryon  Island  to  leeward  in  everj*

of  the  sea.  They  present  ])erpcndiculiir  clitl's  on  every  side  ;  yet  it  is  possible  to  as- 
cend them  with  great  difTiculty,  in  one  or  two  jdaccs,  but  there  is  no  landing  upon 
iheni  except  in  the  calmest  sea.  Kvery  ledge  and  fissure  of  the  clifTs  are  occupied 
tiv aaiincts,  and  the  summits  of  both  rocks  are  literally  covered  with  them.  The 
white plamagc  of  these  birds  gives  these  rocks  the  apjiearance  of  being  capjjcd  with 
jiiow,  uiul  renders  them  visible,  through  a  night-glass,  in  a  clear  and  moonlight  night, 
from  (he  distance  of  7  or  8  miles. 
The  two  rocks  bear  from  each  other  N.N.W.  i  W.  and  S.S.E.  4  E.,  and  are  700 
faihoms  apart.  Sunken  rocks  Icnvc  only  a  boat  passage  between  them.  'I'be  South- 
easternmost  is  the  largest  and  highest,  though  scarcely  200  fathoms  long,  and  not  more 
itian  110  feet  high  above  the  sea.  The  otlier  is  divided  into  two  precipitous  mounds, 
.  lied  together  by  a  low  ledge.  The  lesser  of  these  mounds  resembles  a  tower.  A 
iecfextcnds  700  fathoms  to  the  Eastward,  from  the  Little  or  N.W.  Hird  Hock,  and 
there  is  a  |)atch  of  breakers  nearly  midway  between  the  two,  and  rather  to  the  S.W. 
of  aline  drawn  from  one  to  the  otlier.  The  Cireat  or  S.E.  Hird  Hock  is  (piite  bold, 
escepting  in  the  direction  of  the  other  rock.  The  Little  or  N.W.  Hird  Hock,  bears  N. 
E.  by  K.  I  E.,  distant  16i  miles  from  the  East  point  of  the  Magdalens  ;  and  E.  i  S.,  lOj 
miles  from  the  East  end  of  Hryon  Island. 
The  soundings  ofl"  the  Hird  Rocks  to  the  Eastward  have  been  already  stated  in  the 
description  of  St.  Paul  ;  they  extend  still  further  off  to  the  Northward,  so  as  to  aflbrd 
ihemost  ample  warning  and  assistance  to  vessels  at  night,  or  in  foggy  weather,  as  will 
he  seen  in  the  chart.  Hetween  them  and  the  East  point  of  the  Magdalens,  the  depth 
nowhere  exceeds  16  or  17  fathoms,  over  a  bottom  of  reddish  sand,  and  sea-eggs  are 
very  frequently  brought  up  by  the  lead. 

Between  the  Hirds  and  Hryon  Island,  there  is  a  ridge  of  rocky  and  foul  ground,  on 
ttine  parts  of  which,  it  has  been  said,  there  is  as  little  as  4  fathoms  of  water,  because 
tolioinhas  been  seen  in  calm  weather.  Wo,  however,  could  not  find  less  than  7  fath- 
oms, but  it  may  nevertheless  exist,  so  that  a  large  ship  had  better  not  cross  this  ridge 
itiien  there  is  much  sea  running.  The  two  cliHy  points  on  the  North  side  of  Hryon 
Island,  in  one,  mark  the  Northern  limits  of  this  rocky  ground. 

.WTICOSTI  ISLAND. — The  Island  of  Anticosti,  situated  in  the  entrance  of  the  Anticosti 
NW.  arm  of  the  Gulf  of  St.  Lawrence,  is  122  miles  long,  30  miles  in  extreme  breadth,  Island. 
ind  aboil  270  miles  in  circumference,  following  the  coast  from  point  to  point  across 
the  bays. 

Its  shores  are  everywhere  of  rock,  belonging  to  one  great  formation,  namely,  a  very 
indent  secondary  limestone,  atlbrding  in  some  parts  excellent  building  stone,  of  which 
the  two  lighthouses  have  been  constructed. 

Streams  of  excellent  water  descend  to  the  sea  on  every  ptirt  of  the  coast.  They 
ire  generally  too  small  to  admit  boats,  becoming  rapid  immediately  within  their  en- 
taees,  and  even  the  largest  of  them,  Observation  River,  to  the  Westward  of  the  S. 
V.  point,  is  barred  with  sand,  excepting  for  short  intervals  of  time  after  the  spring 
fre>liets  or  heavy  rains. 

Many  of  these  streams  abound  with  trout,  and  are  visited  periodically  by  great  num- 
bers of  salmon,  which  are  taken  by  the  two  or  three  resident  families,  and  salted  for 
the  Quebec  market. 

Anticosti  is  estimateu  to  be  nowhere  higher  than  700  feet  above  the  sea.  Its  South 
toast  is  low  and  shelving,  with  reefs  of  Hat  limestone  which  dry  at  low  water.  There

GASIM'",  ll.AKBOR.— From  theN.M.  si.h;  of"  Cape  llaldimand,  Sandy-heaeh  Point 
mahout  to  tlie  Northward,  an.d  forms  the  11arl)or  of  (Jasp(''.  It  is  a  very  lo\v  and  nar- 
roujioint  of  sand,  convex  to  seaward,  on  which  side  the  water  deepens  gradually  from 
jii^li-wider  mark  to  t!ic  depth  of  3  fathom.s,  a  distance  of  nearly  half  a  mile.  On  the 
iiiiiii!i'  ii  is  as  hold  as  a  wall.  Thus  this  sjiit,  apparently  so  fragile,  hecomes  a  natural 
daMior  I.Tcakwalnr,  upon  which  the  heavy  swell,  whieli  often  rolls  into  the  hay,  can 
priiliu'ii  no  etfoct,  expending  its  strenglii  in  the  shoal  water  iielnre  reaching  the  heach. 
Tilt' ui'.tor  deepens  immediately  outside  of.'}  fai!io;iis,  all  along  the  outside  of  Sandv- 
be;icli  Poiai,  and  also  otfits  North  extremity  ;  so  that  it  is  holh  dangerous  aiul  dilllcnlt 
to  heat  in  or  out  of  the  htirhor  at  night ;  the  lead  giving  little  or  no  warning. 

To  llie  Northward  of  Sandy-heaeli  I'oint,  at  the  distance  of  nearly  a  mile,  is  the  pe- 
ninsuhi,  wiiieh  is  a  low  sand,  covered  with  spruce-trees,  and  it  has  several  whale-sheds

Dwp.t  part  of  the  eiitranc"'  to  the  harl.xir,  which  is  l-JO  fathoms  wide,  from  '.i  fathoms  to

Toniii  into  the  harbor  of  Caspi.iittend  to  tiie  following  directions  and  remarks  :  On

eriioxlrenie  of  the  slioal  oil'  S;indy-heaeli  Point.  The  extremity  of  the  spruce  trees 
is :i<  l':ir  within  the  whale-sheds  as  these  last  are  from  tlie  sandy  exlremity  of  the  pe- 
niiKiilit.  On  the  inner  side  of  Sandv-hetitdi  Pidiit.  and  near  to  its  iuueti<m  with  tiio 
main-laiiil,  stands  a  wooden  windndll.  Keep  Point  Panard  in  one  with  the  extreniily 
ol'ili"  s]iraee-trees  on  the  peninsula,  hearing  N.  47  W.,  until  the  windmill,  just  iiien-

Ills 


nirifT  upon,  that  you  am  approachingr  tlm  pcrunsula  and  have  passed  Sandy-be-xcli  Vu''  t 
iind  caji,  in  conseqiioiico,  vontiuH!  to  Irml  to  the.  Soutlnvard  into  tlio  imcliorniro.  -r' 
form  this  jiidjincat  accurately  is  the  (hHicult  i) art  of  the  process,  and  as  t<)  I'lil  in  ti/. 
woiihl  i)ro!)al)iy  cause  tlic  loss  of  the  vessel,  if  the  usual  heavy  swcdl  slioulil  he  rollinff 
into  the  hay  will;  S.IO.  wiuds,  1  recouimoiul  a  V(!ssol  rather  to  trust  to  her  aiirliorj, ,  ji- 
Doilfhis  Town  th  lu  to  make  the  attemi)t.  In  case  of  a  vessel  which  has  lost  Uvr  v 
ohors,  the  directioris  which  I  have  friven  may  prove  of  use.  Withiii  Sandy-l)eacli  I'nim 
that  is,  in  the  harbor  of  (iasjx',  the  shelter  is  complete  from  all  winds.  The  botto; 
niul,  and  the  depth  nowhere  exceeds  1 1'\  fathoms. 

lIuviuT  no'.v  frivcn  directions  to  enable  the  seaman  to  take  his  vessel  intoa  placp  of 
perfect  security,  from  which  lie  may  ])rocoed  to  the  basin,  or  to  any  other  |)art  (ifii,,. 
harbor,  with  the  assistance  of  the  chart,  or  of  a  pilot,  1  shall  not  swell  lliesn  rnnurU 
by  a  minute  d(!scription  of  the  interior  of  the  hirbur,  which  the  (diart  renilcrs  uiiup. 
cess  iry,  and  which  is  not  in  any  way  essential  to  safety. 

I  .•^hall  merely  add  tliat  the  harbor  is  divided  into  the  N.W.  and  S.W.  arms.  Thc\ 
W.  arm  has  d(!ep  water  for  nearly  3  miles  al)ovc  t'le  peninsula,  and  continues  iiuvirV 
blc  for  keeled  !)oats  about  3  miles  further,  where  the  principal  river  of  the  luirlior en- 
ters the  arm  between  IMarsli  and  Meadow  Islands. 

The  entrance  of  the  S.W.  arm  is  aboi/  180  fathoms  wide,  and  between  two  siiinly 
jioints,  but  the  niviTible  cliainKd  is  e(inlr..''ted  by  shoais  on  cither  side  to  almm  fii) 
latiioms  ;  and  5  fathoms  of  water  can  bo  carried  in.  The  deep-water  part  of  tho  S.W 
arm,  which  eontinuos  for  tiiree-(juarters  of  a  mile  within  the  entrance,  is  caiici!  tin;  Ij;,. 
sin  of  Gasp(''.  It  lias  a  depth  of  IVom  5  to  U  fathoms,  over  a  mud  bottom,  and  is  snili. 
ciciitly  capacious  to  hob'  a  very  ffreat  number  of  vcssids  as  sccnirely  as  in  u  dod^ 
Uo  its  c  in  ascend  this  ara>  by  a  narrow  channel,  between  shoals,  abour  3  miles,  us  in 
the  N.W.  arm,  and  tlie  navinfition,  for  ail  but  canoes  or  (lat-bottomeil  boats,  is  termi- 
nate 1  in  the  same  manner,  by  shallow  channels  between  !\larsh  and  .Meadow  hhnk 
Above  this  part  of  the  river  it  becomes  contracted  and  rapifl.  and  the  water  i'rt's!i,  \ 
small  rivu'ct  in  the  hay,  on  the  inside  of  the  South  jjoint  of  the  entrance  of  tli;' haMji 
is  the  most  convenient  watcrinif-place  in  the  harbor.  The  Collector  of  Ciistonis.unil 
the  principal  faniilies,  reside  on  the  s'lore.sof  the  l)aNin.  Most  of  these  families,  us  wtlj 
as  t!io;e  of  the  N.W.  arm  and  the  harbor  jrencrally,  are  farmers,  but  several  ofihem 
arc  also  eaijfa^Ti.'d  in  the  whalo-tishery,  which  they  prosecute  in  small  scIkioiicis. 
Tie  col-fishcry  is  earriiul  on  by  the  ])Ci)ple  of  the  bay  outside,  for  the  most  purr 
in  connection  with  the  Jersay  merchants.  The  ffreat  majority  ol' the  lislicriiicii  ;ire 
either  from  Jer.sey  or  djyconded  from  the  people  of  that  island,  whose  language  ihcy 
retain. 

There  are  ■e^rular  but  weak  streams  of  Hood  and  e])b  in  iho  eii^rances  of  the  harljir 
an  1  l)a:;in.  In  il.obiy  t!ie  streams  of  the  tides  are  so  irresxnlar,  that  I  can  say  noihiiiT 
certain  respectiu'jr  lliem.  'I'liey  are,  however,  usually  almost  imperceptible,  excianiiig 
nc;ir  the  shores,  and  even  there  they  are  so  weak  as  to  be  of  little  or  no  coiiscqucice 
to  a  vessel. 

The  current  down  the  St.  Lawrence  runs  stron^jly  past  Flower-pot  Rock,  over  to- 
winls  I-'lat  Island,  capecially  in  the  ebb  tide,  which  often  increases  its  rate  to'Jkni)is, 
and  t!iis  sliould  bo  rjMiombi're  1  by  vessia's  m  ikin'j  tiio  bay  with  a  Noriiicrly  win!. 
This  current,  when  it  meets  the  swell  which  so  often  prevails  from  the  S.  and  S.i;., 
causes  a  hi-jh,  short,  and  broikinj^  sea,  all  alonj;  the  coisl,  fro  i:  above  (';i]ic  lin- 
zior  to  Cape  CJuspe,  and  e.vtendin^  across  the  entrance  of  t»asp:i'  Hay.  When  ihf; 
wind  is  li)?ht,  a  vessel  becomes  quite  unmana^roablo  in  this  sea,  and  it  is  cxiicnicly 
dangerous  to  be  cau-^ht  in  it,  close  to  the  shore,  by  a  li'jht  breeze  on  the  land. 

in  line  sa  niiier-we  iiher  there  is  often  a  sei-lireeze  blowint;  riuht.  up  tlie  hay  frim 
about  !)  A.  M.  until  sunset.  At  such  times  there  is  troncrally  a  li.jiit  lanil-hriM/.nui 
nijrht  down  the  arms,  wliicli  ofi,.>u  ext^ni  Is  for  sever.il  miles  out  inio  the  bay.  In  liii 
outer  part  of  t')C  bay,  hoA'Over,  it  will  [renerilly  b  •  found  to  be  calm,  ineii  at  tiiii"5 
when  a  fresh  breeze  is  blowinofotitside  Cape  (Jasj)!'  and  Point  PcKn-.  The  wiiidatsei

jud.rin;j  of  this  last  s{)riu<T,  when  a  lar^e  ship,  full  of  i  niifrrants,  ran  stem  on  to  Wlialo

nnd  steerintj  N.W.,  from  which  it  apjieais  that  she  must  have  hern  runniuif  in  soiini!i;iL's  |

NORTIIL'MBERLAND  STRAIT.

V  n. 


A  full  dcscrijition  of  Prince  l^dward  Island,  and  of  the  opposite  coasts  of  New 
Ilriinswick  and  Nova  Ncotia,  having  been  given  in  illustration  of  the  Admiraliv  eliiirts.  j 
U  \M\\  oidy  remains  to  oIHt  a  few  gtMieral  remarks  respeeling  the  Strait  of  Ndriiium- 
herlai  d,  whicli  appears  !c,  have  been  hitherto  avoided  by  liirae  ships,  as  iiiucli  from  al 
want  ol"  that  pn'cise  knowledge  nhich  a  good  chart  and  directions  are  ealeiiliited  lol 
convev,  as  I'rom  any  supposed  amount  of  danger  or  dillicully  in  its  navigation,  'i'lierol 
are,  however,  lew  plaee:i  in  whieh  such  precision  of  knowledge  is  more  reipiisitt  iliaiil 
in  this  strait,  whicij  presents  a  ccmlined  navig;ilion  100  miles  in  length;  and  wliiolutj 
Cape  'i'ormeiitine,  the  narrowest  part,  is  only  7  miles  wide  from  shore  to  shore;  iinil| 
oidy  r>-i  miles,  if  we  reckon  only  the  navigiilde  breadth  between  the  shoals. 

'i'he  description  of  the  (l.iii'.rers  and  of  the  soundings  have  Deeu  -nadt!  very  rii'linl 
consequence;  and  the  times  of  high-water,  and  the  rise  of  the  tides  in  the  vanoujj 
harbors,  together  with  the  sireiiLMh  (d"  the  tidal  streams  in  their  entrances,  have  alsol 
been  given  ;  but  the  tides  ol'the  Strait  are  so  peculiar,  that  it  will  be  both  itit("rt'stini{| 
and  iisel'nl  to  add  a  general  view  of  the  course  of  the  tide  waves,  and  of  the  streni^ihl 
and  direction  ol"  iIk;  sireaiiis  w  hi(di  tiiey  occasion. 

To  ibis  will  bo  added  biietly  the  mode  of  |)roceeding  reeouHncnded  to  be  ndopteil  in| 
a  vessel  running  ihroni.di  the  strait  inadurk  nightor  in  thick  weather,  when  the  sounil- 
ings  alone  can  safely  guide  her. 

For  the  jjiirpose  above  stiited,  it  will  bn  eonvonient  to  divide  the  strait  at  CnpeTnr-l 
mentine  into  two  nearly  equal  iiortiuns,  distinirnislied  by  the  difrerent  set  of  their  tiilall 
streams,  ;ind  by  different  tide-waves,  whieh  advancing  from  opposite  direclioiis,  nioetl 
in  tl'.e  central  part  of  the  strait.  'I'he  coiirst;  of  these  waves  appears  to  hens  lul 
lows: — The  prineii)al  tide-wave,  after  entering  the  (lulf  between  CajJC  Breton  andl 
Newfoundland,  sends  olT,  laterally,  waves  to  the  S.W.,  on  cither  side  of  the  Magdakul

half  tide,  lie  further  N.  by  W.  ;  the  latter,  the  most  distant,  being  a  long  half  mile  from 
the  Black  Rocks.  There  is  no  safe  channel  for  ships  between  these  three  lasi-nainid 
dangers,  wliieh  all  stand  on  a  shual  and  rocky  bank,  that  stretches  across  the  eniraiirc 
of  Glasgow  1  [arbor ;  but  there  is  a  navigable  channel  between  tlicni  and  Glasgow  lieud. 
though  narrow  and  difTicult. 

MAN-OF-WAR  ROCK  bears  from  Glasgow  Head  E.N.E.,  about  half  a  mile.  It 
lies  nnich  in  the  yvay,  but  is  usually  shown  by  breakers,  and  tlie  marks  for  it  arc  dis. 
tinct  and  good.  The  Eastern  ends  of  the  Black  Rocks  and  of  ihe  Cape  Rock  when  in 
(Mie,  bearing  S.  i  IC,  lead  just  to  the  Eastward  of  it,  and,  of  course,  clear  tlie  Bootes: 
tiicrefori;  let  the  (.'ape  Rock  be  kepi  open  to  the  Eastwiird  of  the  Black  Hocks  uiiiil 
Man-of-war  Rock  is  past ;  which  will  be  the  case  when  Flag  Hill  comes  in  one  with 
the  steep  bank  (not  tlie  beach)  of  Fort  Point,  bearing  N.W.  The  last-named  marks 
lead  just  clear  to  the  N.E.  of  tliis  (huigerous  rock. 

Tlie  .MACKEREL  ROCK  lies  half  a  mile  further  to  the  N.W.  HaviuL^  10  feci 
least  water,  it  seldom  shows,  and  is  therefore  the  more  dangerous.  When  on  ii,  tho 
Eastern  extremities  of  Oliver  Island  and  of  Derabie  East  Rocdc  are  in  one,  aniljibi 
open  to  the  Eastward  of  Petit-pas,  which  bears  from  it  N.E.,  400  fathoms.  The  same 
marks  that  clear  Man-of-war  Kock,  namely.  Flag  Hill  and  the  .ftccp  bank  of  Fori  Point, 
as  above  mentioned,  lead  to  the  N.E.  of  this  rock  also,  at  the  distance  of  half  a  calilc's 
length.  'I'liere  is  u  clear  chamicl  on  either  side  of  the  Mackerel  Rock,  but  that  to  the 
i\orth-e,tstward  of  it  has  the  advantage  of  leading-marks. 

SOUTH  SHOAL  is  the  last  danger  on  the  West  side  of  the  channel,  until  we  arrive 
at  (Jrave  Island,  and  (he  entrance  of  (.'anso  Harbor.  It  has  7  feet  least  water,  and  ex- 
tends 300  fathoms  olVsliore.  or  iialf-way  across  towards  the  Eastern  exiremilyof  Gras^y 
Island,  leaving  a  clear  channi  1  between  it  and  (irass  Reef,  of  180  fathoms  in  l.u'caddi. 

The  shoal  water  extends  only  50  fathoms  off  (Jrave  Island,  leaving  a  clianncl  be- 
tween it  and  Piscataqua  Island  100  fathoms  wide,  and  4  fathoms  deep  at  low-water. 

CRANBEUiiV  ISLAND,  with  its  most  useful  lights,  marks  the  East  side  of  the 
entrance  of  the  channel,  as  already  mentioned.  The  island  is  low,  rocky,  and  a  qusr- 
ter  of  a  mile  long.  The  light-house  stands  near  its  Northern  end,  and  is  of  wood, 
octagonal  in  sha|)e,  ])ainled  red  and  wdiite  horizontally,  and  (hsplays  two  liiilits  verti- 
cally. The  ujipcr  light,  75  feet  above  hitrh-waler,  can  be  seen  from  a  distance  of  Ij 
miles;  the  lower,  only  from  a  distance  of  0  miles.  They  bear  from  Cape  Canso  \. 11 
by  N.,  li  mile  ;  but  dangers  on  either  side  reduce  the  breadth  of  tiic  clear  clianuil  \» 
half  !i  mile. 

THl'l  FRYING-PAN,  a  low  islet  of  shingle,  a  quarter  of  a  .nile  N.  by  W.  from  the 
light-house;  and  Crow  Islet,  a  low  rock,  covered  with  dark  spruce  bushes,  not  exceed- 
ing 20  feet  in  height,  and  distaitt  three-quarters  of  a  mile  further  in  the  same  direction, 
Avill  easily  be  distingnislicd.  Si  ill  more  remarkable  is  Petit-pas,  a  small,  round,  f.nMs.M 
islet,  a  cable's  lengtli  in  diameter,  with  a  red  clay-cliirSO  feet  high,  and  li  mile  N.W 
i  N.  from  the  light-house. 

OLIVER  ISLAND,  wooded,  and  separated  from  the  East  end  of  George  Island  by 
a  narrow  boat-channel,  must  also  be  noticed.  Its  I']astern  extrcmily.  Lock  Poini. 
forms  a  leading-mark,  an  1  bears  from  Fetit-pas  N.E.  4  E.,  a  quarter  of  a  mile. 

CJRASSY  ISLAND,  a  third  of  a  mile  to  the  westward  of  Petit-pas,  is  a  hill  of  drift- 
sand,  clay,  and  bouhlers,  half  a  mile  long,  and  G6  feet  high.  It  is  covered  with  prass, 
and  displays  the  only  other  clay-clilf  besides  that  of  Petit-pas  on  this  side  of  the  chan- 
nel. It  is  no  longer  insulated,  being  now  united  to  George  Island  'oy  a  bar  of  shinsjle, 
which  is  never  covered.     The  remains  of  an  extensive  redoubt  give  the  name  of  Fort

BRETON  ISLAND,  WEST  COAST. 

TiicXortlicrn  entrance  of  the  Gat  of  Cnnso,  from  the  light-house  to  Breton  Island  Breton  Irl- 
|il!i'HVrii'm  Point,  is  a  distance  of  1',  mile.     For  the  first  7  miles  we  meet  with  no  and,  V\'csl 
|e;:iclicil  dangers,  nor  docs  the  shallow  water  anj'wherc  extend  to  the  distance  of  Cua^l. 

i' ;i  mile  IVoai  the  shore.  The  land  is  high,  and  rather  barren-looking,  rising,  at 
pedis'.anne  of  half  a  mile  from  the  shore,  to  the  sutmni!  of  a  ridge  850  feet  above 
lie  sei.  and  whic'.i  continues  |)ar,illel  to  the  co;istline  for  5  or  G  miles.  The  only 
[enuibblc  object  in  this  interval  is  the  IJoman  Catholic  church  at  Craigidsh,  which

u'oiiit,  a  low  cliir  of  red  sandstone,  the  coast  becomes  dangerous  of  approach,  ami 

i:i;iiiiics  so  to  Emersion  Head,  a  distance  of  7  or  S  miles. 

jJlDIQUFi  SIIOAL,  the  greatest  danger  in  the  bay,  is  of  rock,  and  about  half  a  Judiqvc 
jiilc  ill  length,  if  we  reckon  only  the  very  shallow  part;  but  there  are  patches  with  2  Shoal. 

i\'.'  f.ithoins,  and  much  rocky  ground  both  to  the  North  and  South  of  it,  as  will  be 
letii  ill  tlie  chart. 

On  the  outer  and  N  W.  point  of  the  shoal,  the  chu-ch  at  Port  Hood  is  only  just 
bt  ill  bchiiid  Susan  Point,  bearing  N.X.E.  ;  Long  Point  bears  S.  by  E.  2J  miles  ;

Directions.  DIRIX'TIONS. — To  run  for  the  ancl'or;ige  in  .leilore  harbor  from  the  WesuvrirdJ 
proceed  as  follows  :— Pass  mid-way,  or  nearly  so.  b(-tween  .ledore  Head  and  .Ifdiirel 
Rock,  steering  E.N.E.,  so  as  to  kec])  outside  of  Thorn  Shoal  until  the  sleep  h.iiik  (notf 
the  sn'id-beach)  of  Marsh  Poini  touches  the  shingle  beach  of  Mar  Point.  Iiciinojl 
N.byE.  iE.  Run  in  with  these  marks  tiniching,  until  IJogcr  Island  tou( Ins  I'aJ 
Head,  bearing  S.E.  by  E. ;  then  alter  course  to  N.  Ity  W.  (to  clear  the  Har  Shoal), ;J 
when  between  1  or  W  cable's  leimlh  from  the  shinirle  beach  on  the  Western  slidreo 
the  harbor,  keep  away  to  the  Northward  and  ICasax  ird.  so  as  to  run  along  thiu  shorel 
at  any  distance  between  a  cable  and  half  a  cable's  length,  mtil  up  to  the  sr.nd-bfscif 
of  Marsh  Point,  which  must  be  rouinled  to  the  Norihwaru  nt  the  same  distance, 
anchor  between  it  and  PenPoint  on  the  opposite  shoio,  in  about  7  fathoms,  n'l 
muddy  bottom.  At  or  near  low-waler,  when  a  ]iart  of  the  I{ar  Shoal  is  sliownJ 
breakers,  ami  the  steep  mud-flats  are  visible  on  cither  side  of  the  channel,  is  ihomoiif 
favorable  time  for  entering  this  h.uhor. 

In  appro, .ching  the  harbor  from  Ihe  Southward,  the  h  irbor's  mouth  ^lioiikl  he  «f( 
between  the  Old  Man  and  .Fedore  Rock,  or  the  whole  of  .ledore  ClitV  should  he'pe( 
to  the  Westward  of  Jedore  Rock,  to  pass  to  the  Westward  of  the  Polio  ks.  on  wliiclj 
however,  no  less  than  51  fathoms  could  be  found.  Leaving  AriH)ld  and  Jedore  Koikl 
to  the  Westward,  pass  midway  belwo(Mi  (hem  and  th-^  Old  Man,  taking  care  to  iivni 
the  sunken  rock  oti"  the  latter  ;  or,  if  it  be  preferred,  pass  to  the  I'-a^  ward  oftheOy 
Man.  which  is  quite  bold  on  tlnit  side,  and  when  approaching  the  harlior's  nimiilj 
bring  the  marks  on  for  running  in,  namely,  the  steep  bank  (not  the  sand-beachl  ( 
Marsh  Point  and  the  shingle  beach  of  Mar  Point  touching,  and  proceed  as  Itifiil 
directed. 

In  a|)proaching  from  the  Eastward,  the  coasting  vessels  pass  within  l^trCT  l^l'M 
and  between  the  South-west  ledu'es  and  Long  Island,  stfM'ring  for  Jedore  Reek, i;J 
leaving  outside  (  '  them  the  outermost  of  the  ledges  ;  but  this  should  never  lie

1  niile  to  t!ie  Southwiird,  and  to  within  litilf  a  mile  of  tlic  Muscpjidoboit  shoal.     A  ", 

iiepih  of '2',  fathoms  maybe  curried  past  Harbor  Islet  on  either  side,  but  it  is  nil 
crtvereihvith  breakers  in  a  stronir  Southerly  wind,  and  is  altogether  nn  e.vceedinyly 
(]i„ireroiis  place.     At  low-waler,  when  the  Duke  Hocks  and  ilm  Hull  iJi-ef  on  either 

side  Iff  liic  entrance,  and  the  mud  Hals  on  either  side  of  the  (diannel,  become  visilde,  •    ■* 

is  the  most  lavorable  time  for  ti  stransrer  to  attempt  to  enter  this,  nnd  also  the  other 

inlets. 

The  shores  of  these  inlets  arc  well  settled,  especially  near  their  heads,  where  the 
rmd  from  Dartmouth  passes  and  continues  to  Ship  Harbor,  anil  is  soon  to  be  extended 
furilicr  I'aslward. 

TIDI'I"^. — At  the  enlrances  of  these  inlets  it  is  hiu;h-\vater,  at  full  tind  chanpre,  7",  Tides. 
hours  after  the  moon's  transit.     The  rise  in  ordinary  sprinsf-lides  is  4.',  feet,  and  in 
neaps  U  feet.     The  ordinary  rate  of  the  tidal-streams  in  the  entrances  is  from  2  to  3 
knots;  but  heavy  rains,  or  the   melliny^  of  the  winter's  siioav,  have  been  known  to 

increase  the  rate  of  the  ebb-stream  in  the  cntnince  of  the  Musquidohoit  Inlet  to  fully  j      , 

4  knots.  I 

MISQI'IDOBOIT  INLET  is  much  larijer  than  that  of  Perpisawick,  and  contains  Musquido- 
nianv  inlands,  antl  is  navicfable  for  small  craft  and  boats  7  miles  iidand,  to  where  it  boit  Inlet. 
receives  the  waters  of  the  .Muscpiidoboit  River.  Over  the  bar,  iit  the  entrance  of  the 
priiiciial  channel,  which  is  on  the  Eastern  side  of  the  inlet,  and  IS  mile  N.N.W. 
from  Jeditre  Head,  a  depth  of  10  feet  can  be  carried  at  low-water ;  but  Dunhrock 
Rock,  with  only  .3  feet  water  on  it.  lies  directly  in  the  wiiy,  nnd  renders  the  entrance 
both  dillieiilt  and  dauffcrous.  Within  the  bar  there  is  a  de])th  of  4  fathoms  in  a 
clnniiel  l!?()  fathoms  wide,  and  between  flats  of  sand,  mud,  and  weeds,  which  uncover 
at  loH-water,  At  about  4  miles  within  the  bar.  the  channel  becomes  very  narrow, 
and  onlv  7  ur  8  feet  deep  ;  hut  small  craft  and  boats  can  ascend  with  the  tide  to  the 
lead  of  the  inlet. 

I'Ein'lSAWICK  INLET  is  the  next  to  the  Eastward,  nnd  is  also  half  a  mile  Pcr/Ji5au;icA 
wide  at  the  entrance,  which  lies  on  the  West  side  of  Perpisawick  Head.  After  Inlet. 
C'lT-^iiKr  the  bar  of  sand,  about  !i  mile  within  the  entrance,  and  on  which  there  are 
olyOfeet  at  low-wuter.  a  narrow  chamiel,  between  mud-tlats  uncovered  at  low-water, 
MRinicnees,  and  is  navigable  for  any  vessel  thtit  can  cross  the  bar  to  the  head  of  the 
'  t,  a  direct  distance  of  .5  miles.  W'ithin  a  mile  from  the  head  of  the  inlet,  the 
!-llats  retire  on  either  side,  leavinij  an  oiien  space,  in  which  there  are  9  fsithoms 
Mier.  There  tire  reefs  oft'  the  eniranee-iioints  of  thest;  inlets,  and  n  small  rock, 
Iwiihoiily  0  ^vet  water  en  it,  lying  a  cpiarter  of  a  mile  oft"  the  W'estern  side  of  Per- 

-awiek  Head.  On  these  the  sea  breaks  heavily,  as  it  does  also  on  the  bars,  which 
^revery  daiiixeroiis  to  boats. 

CHISSETCOOK  INLET  is  half  a  mile  wide  nt  its  entrance  between  Cape  Entry  Chissetcook 
hndSmry  Head,  the  latter  bearinir  from  Shut-in  Island  N.E.  hy  K.,  3.?  miles  ;  hut  it  is  Inlet. 
M  no  use  to  shipping,  having  only  3  feet  at  low-water  on  the  bar  of  the  Western  and 
irincipal  channel.

oms.  but  its  exact  position  is  not  accurately  Known,  and  Ihe^'cfore  it  is  omitted  in  tlmi 
charts;  the  mariner,  in  passing  through  the  channel  between  these  islands,  ^\ilj  A 
well  to  look  out  for  and  guard  againt  the  probal)le  existence  of  such  a  danger;  there 
is  otherwise  water  snnicicntly  deep  for  any  vessel. 

MAilONH  15A  V  is  sepai  .ccd  from  Margaret's  Day  by  the  peninsula  upon  which  the 
high  and  conspicuous  mountain  of  Aspotogon  is  situated,  whose  appearance,  in  three 
regular  risings,  is  a  very  remarkable  object  to  seaward,  being  visible  more  than  ii) 
miles  oil";  its  entrance  is  encumbered  with  several  islands,  between  all  wiiicha'e 
good  j)assagcs,  with  plenty  of  water  and  few  dangers  ;  these  lead  to  most  cxcolkctl 
harbors,  iind  places  convenient  and  well  adapted  for  the  ii.'heries.  We  have  alrc-,'y 
noticed  (irccu  and  Ironliound  Islands;  these  lie  on  the  Kastcrnside  ofthc  cntrniiccto 
the  Bay  of  .Mahone  ;  adjacent  to  these,  and  on  the  same  side,  are  the  Tnncooklslai.iisl 
Flat  Island,  and  the  Knidimo  Rock  ;  there  are  also  the  IJull  Rock  and  the  (Jiitcr 
Ledge.     On  the  ^^'cstern  side  are  the  Duck  ;)nd  other  islands. 

Great  Duck  Island  lies  W.  by  S.  from  (iri'eii  Island,  distant  4'  miles.  Little nwL 
Island  lies  N.W.  ',  N.,  about  one  mih;  and  two-thirtls  I'rom  (ireat  Ducklslinul,  aiid  W,| 
.',  N.  5  miles  and  ono-tliird  from  Green  Island  :  nearly  midway  belwicn  (Irceii  Islam 
and  Little  Duck  Island  lies  the  Outer  Ledge,  over  wliich  the  sea  always  breaks;  t!ii 
danger  bears  frmi  the  Last  end  of  the  Great  Duck  I.slaiid  N.K.  .'i  N.,  distant  one  £

and  round  it  are  1 ',  .5,  tmd  7  fathoms. 

Flat  Island  lies  due  West  from  Iron-bound  Island,  distant  one  mile  and  a  quarifr; 
and  in  a  similar  direction  from   I'lat  l.-^dand,   somewhere  about  one  mile  oil',  lies  ihi 
Dull  Rock,  but  tlic  exact  situation  of  this  danger  is  not  correctly  aseeriainod,  for MrJ 
Des  Rarres  places  it  more  to  the  Soulhward,  and  ]\Ir.  Lockwood  to  the  Nortlnvard 
this  ]!Osition  :  it  is  a  blind  roelc,  uncovered  at  one-third  ebb,  with  deep  water  nil roiii 
it.    The  Southern  part  of  Flat  island,  in  a  line  with  the  Southern  jjoints  of  Irou-hoiii 
Island,  will  lend  on  the  rocdv,  as  i\Ir.  Des  liarrcs  Inis  placed  it,  while  the  Xorthcrnf 
of  Flat  Island,  in  a  line  with  the  Northern  shore  of  Iron-bound  Isliind,  will  lend  tod 
Xorlhward  of  it;  and  Chester  Church  open  of  (<rcat  Tancook  Island,  will  carry  vi 
to  the  Westward  of  it,  in  7  and  10  fathoms  water. 

Great  Tancook  is  one  mile  and  three-quarters  long,  and  about  a  mile  liroad;  ioti 
Lastward,  between  it  and  the  m.'iin-land,  is  the  Little  Tancook  Island,  separated bj 
channel  a  quarter  of  a  mile  broad,  in  Avhieh  are  7,  8,  and  'J  fathoms  ;  a  similar  ])assa| 
is  between  Litt'c  Tancook  and  Indian  Point,  on  the  main,  but  there  is  a  iniddle-grcni 
in  it  of  4  fathoms.  Kiiohmc  [Jock  is  above  water,  and  shoals  all  round  ;  it  liesio 
'•Eastward  of  the  South-east  part  of  Great  Tancook,  and  at  this  part  of  the  island 
anchorage  in  8  or  10  fithoms  water. 

Westward  of  G'reat  Tancook,  one-third  of  a  mile,  is  a  rocky  shoal  of  six  feet,  wli 
between  them  the  channel  has  10  fathoms  water  :  to  the  W.  by  N.  of  this  shoal 
mile,  is  another,  with  from  G  to  12  feet  over  it.     Ih^twccn  these  shoals  the  pa.^sani 
good,  and  has  from  12  to  25  fathoms  over  it.     Ofl'the  Norlh-west  part  of  Groat'l 
cook   is   Star  Island,  and  a  little  to  the  Kastward  of  it  is  a  rocky  patch  cd' sliai 
groimd,  so  that  vessels  should  never  attempt  the  passage  between  Star  and  Tann 
Islands.     There  is  yet  another  danger,  called  the  Cojichman's  Ledge  ;  it  lies  '2m 
to  the  Northward  of  (.'re;it  Tancook,  iind  is  only  visible  at  low-water.     To  Icadcli 
to  the  I'astward   of  this  ledge,  you  should  bring  the  Eastern  point  of  Great  Tann 
and  the  ilast  side  of  Flat  Island  in  one;  to  ch^ir  it  to  the  Southward,  briii^  the  West 
of  Iron-bound  Island  open  of  the  West  part  of  Little  Tancook,  and  Frederick's Isii

Having  passed  the  Coachman,  the  head  of  the  bay  lies  open  ;  on  your  starboard  side 
■  ihe  liiidi  land  and  huuiU  river  of  Aspotogon,  w  here  small  vessels  ocoasioiially  run  in 
ndanclior;  lliere  is  a  rocky  shoal  at  its  entrance,  wliich  must  ho  avoided.  To  the 
.-  ilnYjird  is  Cunibci'laud  Arm,  easy  of  access,  and  allbrdiniif  goo('  •..nclioriige,  with  7 
n(i8  fatlioius,  ol)serving  to  give  a  herlh  to  the  starboard  shore,  whicli  shallous  some 
ili«taiicc  out.  There  is  also  good  riding  on  the  port  shore,  behind  an  island  Avhich 
lies  oil  lliti  I'-aslern  side  of  the  Chester  Peninsula  ;  here  vessels  can  ride,  well  shel- 
tereii,  in  8  fathoms  water. 

Chester  Town  is  situated  at  the  Noilhern  part  of  ^lahonc  15ay,  and  is  sijrrounded 
bva  fine  and  fertile  country  :  its  inhabitants  arc  industrious  peoi)le,  and  the  adjacent 
islamic*  arc  well  clothed  with  sheep;  wood  and  water  are  in  abundance,  and  several 
.•easels  are  built  here  ;  the  anchorages  between  the  various  islands  and  before  the 
[ownare  good,  well  sheltered,  and  secure,  and  the  depth  of  v.'alcr  moderate  ;  the  only 
ilniircr  is  a  slioal.  which  partly  dries  at  low-v/ater  :  Ihi.i  lies  W.  J  S.  from  the  town  of 
Chester,  fioiu  wliich  it  is  distant  one  mile  and  three-quarters. 

Qi,  the  port  side  of  Mahoiie  Ijay,  and  directly  West  of  Tancook  Islands,  is  a  large 
inlet  or  branch  of  a  river,  named  by  I)cs  Barres,  Princes  Sound.  Tlie  passages  into  it 
arc  very  safe,  only  giving  a  wide  bertli  to  the  Southern  end  of  lOdward's  Island  :  steer 
niid-ciiaanel,  and,  when  \vell  in,  anchor  in  9  fathoms,  or  within  the  innermost  islands, 
in  jorO  fithoins  ;  further  in  it  becomes  Hat  and  shallow. 

To  sail  into  Malionc  I'ay  from  the  Eastward,  the  first  la;id  visible  will  commonly  be 
Green  island,  which  is  round,  bold,  and  moderately  high  ;  thence  to  Iron-bound  and 
Fhit  Isliuuis,  both  steep  to,  is  two  miles  and  threc-quarlers ;  you  may  proceed  and 
pass  between  them  towards  the  Tancook  Islands;  tiiese  are  inliabitcd  ;  the  channels 
between  tlicrn  are  bold,  and  the  anchorages  under  their  lee  good,  in  from  7  to  l!2  fath- 
oms water;  but  if  you  arc  proceeding  for  Chester  between  (Jreen  and  Duck  Islands, 
vounnist  beware  of  the  Outer  Ledge,  which  always  shows  itself  by  breakers  ;  the 
iiiark  to  lead  clear  through  this  passage,  is  Chester  church  well  open  of  Great  Tan- 
conk  Island  ;  this  mark  will  also  carry  you  safe  to  the  West  wiird  of  the  1>iill  Pock, 
alroadv 'li^'^eribed ;  and  when  you  get  near,  or  within  half  a  mile  of  Tancook  Ishuid, 
steer  out  Westward,  and  bring  the  same  church  to  bear  about  North,  and  this  will 
lead  you  up  to  the  town. 

Li.VFiMil'lfG  13AY,  called  also  Malaguash,  is  now  a  place  of  great  poimlation  Lunenburg 
and  considerable  trade  ;  vessels,  cariying  Mood,  cattle,  vegetables,  &c.,  are  constantly  Bai/. 
employeil  iVom  here  to  Halifax ;  the  harbor  is  very  easy  of  access,  and  there  is  good 
anchoraizc  to  the  very  town.     At  its  entrance  lies  Cross  Island,  about  30  feet  high, 
andcontuiaing  ~53  acres  of  land,  on  which  a  light -house,  painted  red,  is  erected,  con-  LigJ.I-Jwnxf 
tainiiiitvvo  lights,  one  30  feet  above  the  other  :  the  lower  one  is  fix(  d,  tiie  upper  one 
istlishing  or  darkened  at  intervals  of  one  minute  :  the  building  is  red.     Cto\}  Island 
is  low  aad  thickly  (covered  with  trees.     On  the  N.E.  side  of  this  island  is  a  nook, 
where  coasters  riile  in  safety  ;  oil"  this  part  lie  the  Hounds  Pocks,  wliicli,  in  ])assing, 
nw<tluivea  berth  ;  the  West  and  Souili  sides  of  the  island  are  liold  :  and  two  miles 
from  its  Southern  end  is  an  excellent  tlshing-bank,  with  from  Id  to  17  fathoms  v»ater. 
There  are  good  channels  on  cither  side  of  Cross  Island. 

Vessels  sailinir  in  or  out  through  the  Northern  p-.issagc,  should  endeavor  to  keep 
about  the  niiddle  of  the  channel,  in  order  to  avoid  the  shoals  and  rocks  above  men- 
tinned,  auJ  also  those  adjacent  lu  he  Ojjpositc,  or  Colcsworth  Poi.ii  ;  having  jiassed 
these. you  sliould  keep  tlu;  Northern  shore  on  boaril,  bringing  liattcry  Point  to  bear 
Dcrly  .\.\V.,  by  which  you  will  also  go  clear  of  Ihe  Sculi>in  or  Cni  Pock. 

The  Sculpin  or  Cat  Rock  lies  nearly  in  the  middle  of  the  bay,  hearing  N.I'.,  distant 
threc-(iiiarters  of  a  mile  froiii  Ovens  Point  ;  according  to  l)es  liarres,  tiicre  arc  Imt 
three I'oet  over  this  danger,  but  it  will  easily  be  discovered  by  the  breaker.;  over  it  at 
low-water.  Sailing  through  lite  Western  channel,  which  is  to  be  lu-efVrred,  you 
should  ondoavor  to  steer  N.X.W.  between  <'ross  Island  and  Pose  Point,  where  you 
willhave  10  and  12  fathoms  water;  keep  tiie  town  of  laiiicnburg  in  sight,  over  Ihe 
low iaiul  to  the  Eastward  of  Hattery  Point,  and  this  will  h^id  you  clear  of  tlie  rocky 
reefs ahout  the  Ovens  Point  ;  but  beware  lest  you  lessen  your  water  below  7  falhonis, 
for  the  soundings  about  the  jioint  are  very  irregular;  bring  Ihe  ^\  agon-road  at  Lnnen- 
burifOjicM  to  the  Westward  of  the  Mattery  Point ;  and  this  will  run  you  to  tl'.e  \\  est- 
ivard  of  the  Sculpin,  and  between  it  and  a  rocky  knoll  of  4  fathoms  water;  having 
assed  the  Scul|)in,  haul  up  towards  the  Norliicni  shore,  until  yon  l)riiig  .Morean  .and 
iiliery  Points  in  one  ;  this  being  the!  direct  mark  for  tiie  Scid[iin  liock,  steer  on  in  the 
direciiiui  of  ihc  ilattery  Point,  aiiprotiehing  it  no  nearer  than  a  cable's  length  ;  then 
round  Battery  Point,  and  brinir  the  road  well  ojien  of  the  Morean  Point  ;  this  w  ill  run 
jouclearinto  the  harbor,  and  between  the  Long  ifock  and  the  shoals  off  I'atterv  Point, 
when  you  niiiy  direct  jour  course  for  the  town,  where  you  will  liiid  1-2  and  13  feet 
water  aloii^rside  the  wharves,  and  near  to  them  20  and  21  feet,  soft  muddy  ground,  and

BLUNTS  AMERICAN  COAST  PILOT. 


tlic  N.W.  end  of  Moutoii  Islaml.  and  N.K.  \  K.  from  the  N'orlhom  Spectacle  Isiami 
distant  lialf  a  mile.  Tlie  Spectacles  lie  to  the  W.N. Westward  of  Moutun  |s1q,J|, 
and  are  visible  ay  you  enter  tlie  (mrt.  To  the  Northward  and  Westward  of  thtm,  ai  ■ 
10,  11,  and  12  fathoms  water,  muddy  and  sandy  ground,  with  good  anchoriim..  secu,., 
from  all  -wiiidj.  To  sail  into  Pert  Slouton  by  iiie  Ka^  'rn  ciiannel,  and  -wiili  alcai;;,', 
wind,  to  the  Northward  of  the  lllack  K'ocks,  y(.u  may  steer  in  VV.  by  N.,  pabsinnii 
tlie  distance  of  three-quarters  of  a  nule  fro:i>  ^Vhite  Point,  until  you  briiiu;  the  Siie,. 
taele  Islands  to  bear  S.S.W.  i  W.  ;  this  will  carry  you  clear  to  "the  I*vorilnvar(l  and 
Westward  of  Mouton  Island  N.W.  Shoal,  then  haul  up  .S.W.  by  W.  for  tiie  aiipjiora;,,, 
before  mentioned.  To  sail  in  to  tlie  Westward  of  the  Jilack  Rocks,  you  should  Mec'r 
in  N.W.,  mid-channel,  or  nearly  lialf  a  mile  from  Mouton  Island.  In  this  passage 
you  will  fmd  from  8  to  15  fathoms  water;  always  K'^iiig  the  Southern  puit  of  th( 
island  a  berth,  on  account  of  a  sandy  flat  which  runs  otfil.  In  adoptinir  this  clianmi 
mariners  must  look  out  for  a  small  knoll  of  G  feet,  said  to  lie  I'^NMl.  J  )•;.,  distuiit  om' 
mile  and  a  half  from  the  Southern  extremity  of  Mouton  Island.  This  appears  to  bt  ' 
a  modern  discovery. 

The  Western  passage  to  Port  IMouton  is  between  the  island  and  the  main,  and 
only  frequented  by  coasters  and  vessels  of  a  snuill  draui^ht  of  water.  It  is  encumbcrei' 
with  sheds,  and  too  intricate  fur  stranufcrs.  The  channel  is  narrow,  and  close  toilic 
niain-liuid,  passing  between  it  and  t!ie  iJiill  Rock ;  having  passed  which,  you  can 
proceed  to  the  anchorages,  cither  olVthe  N.W.  shore,  or  Mouton  Island,  or  round ihe 
Spectacles. 

The  land  now  turns  S.W  .?  \V.  from  Point  Mouton  towards  Port  Jolie  ;  midwa; 
is  a  black  craggy  point,  with  several  rocks  about  it.  S.  h  E.i  distant  •2\  miles  froiii 
151aek  Point,  and  S.W.,  11  nnlis  from  Liverjiool  light-houso,  lies  Little  Hope,  tJ 
island  21  feet  high,  and  200  fai  horns  huiif.  This  is  a  very  great  danger,  and  shoulj 
have  a  hcieon  to  distinguish  it ;  round  the  island  is  ji  shoal  ground,  partly  drvin.-, 
and  with  3  and  -1  fathoms  upon  some  parts;  it  lies  direct  K.vS.H.  from  liie  \\^i\.\ 
crn  point  of  the  entrance  to  Port  Jolie,  from  which  it  is  distant  2  good  miles,  llciwce:) 
the  island  and  jjoint,  somewhat  nearer  to  the  latter,  there  is  said  to  lie  a  dangeroll^ 
shoal,  not  hitherto  noticed  in  ihe  charts. 

Port  Jolie  is  an  inlet  more  than  5  mihis  deep,  but  very  shallow,  and  having  scarci 
water  enough  for  large  boats  ;  the  lands  adjacent  a])|)ear  barren  and  stony, yet  havo 
some  families  of  fishermen  settled  there.  Nearly  South  from  the  IJastera  point  n; 
Port  Jolie,  distant  one  .mile,  is  a  spot  of  3  (athems,  over  which  the  S2a  coinnioniy

themselves  by  the  breaking  of  the  water  over  them.  There  is  also  a  small  island, 
lying  to  the  South-westward,  called  the  Littlo  or  Lesser  Iloim.

know.i  by  the  steep  and  abrupt  ai)pe;u-ance  of  its  Western  head  ;  and  also  by  Cretn 
Island,  which  lies  to  the  Soutli-wesiwar.l  of  its  entrance.  This  island  is  soinewki 
remarkal)le,  being  destitute  of  t'-ecs.  Port  LT.hert  is  divided  from  Port  Jolie  Lya| 
peninsula,  which,  at  the  head  of  the  resjiective  jiorts,  is  scarcely  half  a  mile  across, 
The  channel  in  runs  nearly  North  fi  or  7  miles  ;  but  althouuh  small  vessels  may  rtn  | 
a  considerable  way  up,  ships  of  larger  size  can  only  lind  anchorage  at  its  entrance. 
The  depth,  half  a  mile  from  the  head,  is  from  !)  to  12  feet ;  but  at  the  nioulh  of  tin

its  entrance,  nearly  muhvay  of  the  channel,  is  a  rocky  islet.     This  lies  fe>.W.  by  W

It  is,  however,  not  destitute  of  inhabitants,  some  of  whom  are  settled  in  asuiallnoct| 
close  to  the  Westward  of  the  river,  which  is  called  the  Little  Harbor.

The  litjht-liuuse  is  painted  black  and  white,  vcrlieally,  and  has  a  remarkable  ap])ear- 
ance  in  the  day-time,  on  account  of  a  dark  wood  that  is  behind  it;  while,  at  night,

The  (lanacrs  to  be  left  to  the  Eastward  of  you,  are  those  adjacent  to  the  Rugged

Jisiant  nearly  one  mile  from  (^'arllon  Point,  lies  the;  Adjiuiant  Rock,  abreast  of  Durfey's 
lloibe.  This  will  easily  be  avoided  by  going  into  no  less  water  than  4,^  or  5  fathoms, 
or  by  keeping  Petifs  Inland  oi)en  of  Surf  Point.  The  inlet  which  runs  up  to  the  N.W^ 
lias  several  shoals  in  it,  but  the  Ivistcrn  shore  has  regular  soundings,  from  >Sandy

TiiK  isi.i:  OF  sAKi.t:  a:\b  nA]\  ks  of  ivo  v  a  s(  «ti\, 

The  dry  part  of  tlii.s  island  is  2"3  miles  lonp,  and  the  bars  nt  each  end  iiculv 
30  miles,  niakinji  a  bow  or  crescent  of  5-J  miles  in  lenfftb.  Caught  within  ilio 
horns  of  this  crcsei  nt  in  a  strong  Northerly  gale,  the  situation  of  a  vessel  woulj 
be  extremely  perilous;  for  the  ebb-tide  sets  to  the  Southward,  dircrtly  on  nnd 
over  th(!  liars,  usually  at  the  rate  of  lA  and  «  knots,  and  when  acrchratcil  In 
winds  much  faster;  whilst  the  flood-stream  runs  at  a  much  less  rate  in  1  lie  opposite 
direction. 
Bars.  The  whole  extent  of  the  North-west  bar,  from  the  end  of  the  Grassy  Sand-hills  to  | 

the  depth  of  10  fathoms,  is  nearly  seventeen  miles  ;  the  dry  part  being  succpcddl 
nine  miles  of  fo;imiiig  breakers  in  bad  weather,  and  the  rc'maining  seven  miles,  fruni  I 
five  to  ten  fathoms  of  depth,  being  usually  shown  by  a  great  ripple,  or  a  heavy  Cross 
sea. 

Tiic  direction  of  this  bar  is  N.W.  i.  N.  magnetic,  for  the  first  twelve  mile?,  then  W, 
by  N.  for  the  remaining  distance;  beyond  which  the  water  deepens  graihmlly  to  itc  | 
Westward  for  many  miles. 

'J'he  North-east  "bar  extends  fourteen  miles  out  from  the  Crassy  Sand-hills  to  the  | 
depth  of  ten  fathoms.     Its  direction  is  N.i'].  by  1',  A  II.,  for  the  first  seven  miles, k- 
yond  which  it  curves  gradually  till  it  terminates  to  ll.S.I'. 

The  dry  part  of  nearly  four  miles  is  succeeded  by  eiirhl,  or  nine  miles  of  broaliers.l 
when  there  is  any  sea  running.  I  have  considered  this  bar  as  ending  at  the  depth  01 1 
ten  fathoms,  but  the  ridge  of  sand  continues,  witli  a  depth  of  from  ten  to  thirteen  I 
fathoms,  and  often  a  heavy  breaking  sea,  ten  miles  further  to  E.S.E.,  and  then  ends  I 
at)ruptly  ;  the  soundings  increasing  to  170  fathoms,  in  a  distance  of  three  miles  further  | 
in  the  same  direction. 

Boti.  Oars  are  extremely  steep,  and  conscrpiently  dangerous  of  a])proacli  on  the  .'uirili| 
side  ;  the  North-east  bar,'especiiilly  so,  having  thirty  lathoms  of  water  close  to  it.  To  I 
the  Southward,  on  the  contrary,  the  water  deepens  gradually  out  for  so  many  miles, I 
that  it  would  seem  almost  impossible  for  any  vessel,  using  common  jirccaution,  torcnl 
on  shore  on  that  side,  either  of  the  ishmd  or  bars.

to  the  Editors. 

"I  have  known  the  island  for  the  last  twenty-eight  years,  in  which  time  thc\^e>; 
end  has  decreased  in  length  about  7  miles,  although  the  outer  breakers  oftiieN.^V

over  i.iuddy  bottom,  a  little  nearer  the  U^cstern  than  the  Eii-^terii  side  of  the  harbor 
The  lead  will  give  the  best  iulbi''n:i*ion  at  high-waC  r  when  (jvcrything  is  covered. 
and  v'.iiich  is  the  most  didleult  time  io  enter;  but  at  low-water,  when  everything 
shows  itself,  (he  banks  of  tlie  channel  point  out  the  nnchoragt;. 

A  s|)ri"ng  of  fresh  water  elo.;e  to  (the  Southernmost  wharf  all'ords  about  four  tons  of 
very  good  water  daily.

GRAND  PASSAGE  AND  WESTPORT. 

The  principal  dangers  in  Grand  Passage  are  : 

PASSAGE  SllO.VIi,  which  has  5  feet  on  it  at  low-water  springs,  lies  in  tlioniiildiel 
of  the  passage,  bearing  from  Peter  Island  light-house  N.  \  E.,  I  cables'  length  distani,  | 
and  shows  a  tide-ri[)  during  the  tide. 

COW   LEIKJE. — The  highest  part  shows  soon  after  high-water,  and  is  distant  1 
cable's  Icngtn  from  Long  Island,  lo  which  it  is  joined  at  low-water.     Peter  Mini! I

if  the  flood  is  running  great  u.ire  must  be  taken,  as  llu;  tide  sets  ilireetly  on  t!ie  Sumij 
point  of  Peter  Island  with  great  strength.  When  through  the  channel,  and  wishincii

("iiplai'i  Dowers,  of  the  navy,  has  slated  that,  in  the  route  from  New  Providpnn.  i, 
Jamaica,  in  IHll,  when  "  |)assinir  aloiiir  the  West  side  of  Watljiiir'.s  Island,  nhoin 
Icl  niih;  from  the  sandy  beach,  witli  the  S.  by  \\  .  point  bearintr  S.W'.,  jusi  at  (ld>k 
w  discovered  u  led:re  of  breakers  (about  a  ship's  length  JJasL  and  West)  cIum' 
to  us : — 

"  When  about  a  cable's  lenfjth  to  the  Westward  of  tlieiu,  wo  had  the  followin-r 
bearinsrs,  viz.  :  a  remarkable  black  rock,  close  to  the  shore,  and  la'eakers  in  one,  H.s  l" 
the  .N.W.  point  of  tlie  island  10.,  the  S.VV.  |>i)int  S.  by  K. 

"  We  had  5  fathoms  at  about  2  cables'  leiifjfth  to  the  Northward,  and  dceiiciaMl  uiir

line  about  half  a  mile  outside  ;  the  water  the  same  color  as  the  ocean  ;  at  tiiis  ii,,i. 
land  was  distinctly  seen  from  mast-head,  bearini?  S.W..  and  very  low.' 

UIJM  KI'jY. —  No  reef  of  any  extent  lies  oil'  this  island,  except  IMiuliir's  i{{ei 
This  lies  otf  the  N.W.  part  of  the  i.sland,  exleiidinfr  out  North  about  2  miles,  'riun. 
is  a  small  reef  very  close  in,  near  the  vS.IO.  harl)or  point.  The  shore  in  treneral  i<i  lio],] 
and  if  ,i  trillinof  reef.  sin)als,  or  suidien  rocks  are  known,  tli<'}'  are  chiefly  on  the  .\i)ri*i 
side  of  the  island,  not  t'requented  by  any  shippinir,  and  lyinj;  very  near  the  sliurt'.  Tiif 
S.W.  point  is  a  sand-s))it.  with  very  bold  water  on  either  siile  of  it;  vessels  of  nnv 
size  can  anchor  witliin  -JUO  yards,  and  procure  fresh  water  i'rom  wells  (hig  nciiniii 
beach. 

With  the  exception  of  Pindar's  Reef,  vessids  of  any  size  can  approach  with  snl'iiv 
any  |)art  of  the  island  within  a  (|uarter  of  a  mile,  and  many  places  (jjurticularlv  ilie 
West  end)  within  \M)  lo  '200  yards. 

The  West  side  of  Pindar's  Reef  is  very  bold  ;  vessels  may  run  a  North  course  so 
close  along  as  to  tlirow  a  biscuit  on  it.  The  East  part  of  the  island  shows  whiie 
clitl's  :  more  .Northerly  nijain,  black  clitl's. 

The  vessels  that  lo  id  at  Old  Pond  run  down  the  South  side  in  iroino;'  to  sea,  rouiij 
the  West  end,  keejjinuf  to  the  Eastward  of  Little  Island,  in  sijrhl,  distant  13  miles. am 
to  the  Westward  of  Watlin^^'s  Island,  about  -Ji)  miles  from  Rum  Key. 

If  the  vessels  returninir  homeward  cannot  pass  to  the  JOastward  of  J{uni  Kfv.ani 
are  oblijred  to  take  to  the  South  side,  they  should  keep  close  in  with  Rum  Key, and 
well  in  with  the  West  end,  which  would  allow  tliem  to  puss  well  to  windward  of  Ln- 
tie  Island.      'Varitition.  5  '  E. 

'IMiere  are  settlements  all  round  the  island.  Rum  Key  has  two  salt  ponils  ;  i\\cM 
salt  p.)nd  situated  on  the  South  side  of  the  island,  nearest  the  end.  'i'he  nriclioras'-ii

salt  for  sale,  and  every  dispatch  {riven  while  loadin;;. 

Carmichael  Pond,  a  new  one.  is  at  the  West  end  of  the  island,  and  the  facilitifMis

Directions  fur  sailing  from  Jamaica,  through  the  Windward  Channel  and  Crooked 

Inland  Passage. 

.  Those  who  arc  bounil  from  Jamaica  to  Europe,  or  any  part  of  the  North-eastward, 
liliould.  if  possible,  take  the  Crooked  Island  I'ass.ige  in  |)refereiiee  to  any  other.  From 
iPiiint  Miiraat,  Jamaica,  you  should  endeavor  to  gain  Easting  as  soon  as  |)ossible  ;  and 
Ik takinir  advantage  of  the  wiiiifs  shifting  from  N.N.E.  to  Ivist,  which  it  tieiierally 
Idjes  ill  the  night,  you  will  gain  ground  very  fast ;  and  by  working  up  under  Cape 
iDiiiiie  Marie,  on  llayti,  you  avoid  a  strong  set  to  the  S.VV'.,  caused  by  the  trade- 
Ivind. 

.  TluTC  is.  at  times,  ureat  difliculty  in  working  around  Cajie  Maize,  owing  to  the 
Jftroiiir  lee  current  which  generally  prevails  with  a  strong  N.N.E.  wind,  particularly 
liiithi'  inoiuhs  of  January,  February,  .March,  and  April,  iiuring  which  the  stronu:  North- 
lerly  winds  prevail.     This  current  is  foutid  to  run  strongest  between  (hipe  Maize  and 

jiipe  Dune  .^Iarie,  (or  Donna  Maria.)   the  stream  occupying  a  space  in  breadth,  equal 
ithe  distance  hetwecn  the  contracting  points,  and  runs  at  the  rate  of  2  knots  an 

liour,  settini,  during  the  strong  N.E.  winds,  to  the  S.W'.,  between  the  N.E.  end  of  Ja- 

maiea  and  the  Morant  Keys. 
Some  enininanders,  after  clearing  (he  East  end  of  Jamaica,  have  stood  over  to  the 

puba  siiore,  in  order  to  round  (.'ape  Maize  ;  but  they,  also,  have  found  a  strong  lee 

fcurri'iif,  and  having  little  or  no  land  wind  to  assist  them  in  working  along  the  South 

kidcof  that  land  iu  the  months  above  mentioned,  they  have  at  last  been  obliged  to 
ear  up  for  the  (!ulf  Passage. 
li  is  to  he  understood  that  the  following  directions  are  not  intended  as  a  standing 

pie  fur  working,  at  all  times,  around  Cape  Maize.     In  the  line  season  there  are  va-

West  point  of  the  Three  Maries  and  lioohy  Wocdis.    When  you  perceive  a  uri m  t"\

not  more  than  half  a  leatrue  or  two  miles  from  the  shore. 

At  the  N.VV.  jioint  of  I'rovidenco  Key  the  reef  terminates.     There  is  iitirlioni'i  n]

From  this  sandy  islet   the  reef  runs  in  to  IIh-   Kastwaid,  and  afterwjirils  trowh 
out  to  join  the  North  part,  oil"  the    liiltle   Cayco,  which   is  surrounded  wjili  « 
shoals. 

The  Liitle  Cayco  hears  S.W.  hy  S.  from  the  N.W.  point  of  Providcncf  Vmi 
which  is  of  a  middlinp'  heitiht,  and  of  a  while  color;  you  may  raufre  aldiiu  tin  \  HI

Olf  the  Caycos  aiul  Mayiiffuana  Passage,  Capt.aiu  Livinirston  has  said:  '■rorvi-ifi

no  risk  in  makinp  the  land  some  leairucs  to  leeward  of  the  Iiitlle  Cayco.

When  you  are  come  to  this  jdace,  you  may  consider  yourself  out  of  the  piissiiire 
hut  should  the  wind  happen  to  the  X.  V,.  or  Iv.X.l''.,  you  have  to  fear  W'atiiiig's  IslunJ

ought,  in  leaving  the  passage,  lo  keep  as  much  to  the  I'astward  as  the  wind  will  i|,.|..

Currents. — You  have  little  reason  to  fenr  the  currents  in  this  jmssnge,  wliioli,  im 
fresh  breeze,  are  scarcely  perceptible  ;  but,  in  calms  and  light  winds,  thev  nmv  Mt 
you  to  the  Westward,  but  slowly,  and  so  feebly,  that,  in  a  iiassagc  so  shurt.viii 
need  not  mind  them,  os))ecially  if  you  make  it  wilh  a  large  ^vind.  ijut  in  tin.' iiirmtb 
of  June,  July,  and  jAugust,  when  calms  or  light  ^Vesterly  wiiuls  are  eoiiiiiioii  vtii 
may  experience  a  current  setting  to  the  West  strong  enough  to  alter  yoar  t'oiii">f: 
which  ellect  only  can  happen  in  this  passage,  and  is  occasioned  by  the  jirdxiiiiiivoi  I 
the  extensive  shoals,  forming  the"  channel  of  Balnima,  and  those  of  Pidviiliiue 
Island.  In  this  season,  if  you  have  sutlieient  to  nnike  you  go  more  tliiiii  i' kiiiiJ 
an  hour,  allow  a  quarter  of  a  mile  an  hour  for  the  current  .selling  lo  the  Westward: u 
you  go  3  knots  and  upwards,  this  allowance  will  be  unnecessary. 

AViNDS. — The  N.F.   trade    generally  prevails   here,  except  from   October  lo  .Ipnl, 
which  are  considered  the  winter  nu)iitbs,  <luring  which  you  have   scunetiiiKs  siroiitl 
gales  from  the  N.W.,  and  very  variable  weather.  ])arlieuli.rly  about  the  full  and  tii;,ii!.'e I 
of  the  nu)on,  which  ought  to  be  guarded  against. 

The  MII{A-POK-\'OS,  an  assend)bige  f)f  barren  rocks,  wilh  one  low  siindv  islei, 
lie  to  the  \\'est  of  Castle  Islnnd,  in  -J-J'  7'  N.,  on  a  shoal  similar  to  tlnit  of  llielIos-| 
siies.     They  are  v<^ry  dangerous,  and  should  be  carefully  avoitled,  parlicularlv  wli 
the  islands  bear  in  a  X.W.  direction.  . 

When  the  wind  blows  from  tiie  Northward,  they  break  very  heavy,  and  liavnilwaiil 
a  heavy  swell;  the  current  generally  sets  fr<  ni  the  N.l'',  one  nn'le  per  hour.  Oiiiliel 
Western  side  is  an  indinireiit  anchoratic  ;  the  East  side  is  bold,  and  on  llic  S.K  siiiiJ 
at  a  mile  distant,  there  are  from  :20  to  -JS  fathoms,  coral  and  rocky  grmnid.  .Asilicsej 
keys  are  to  leeward,  they  are  not  ofien  seen  by  vessels  in  ranging  along  ('iislhlsliiiidij

All  the  dangerous  parls  Iircak,  and  Ww  white  ground  will  give  you  notice  in  toodl

precaution  only  of  not  approaching  too  near.  Captain  William  Dowers  was  iiisscjl 
this  way  in  an  evening  ol  January,  IHll,  and  ctime  suildciily  on  a  reef strelcliiii!;(iiii| 
from  the  S.W.  Key,  which  bore  East,  2:t  miles.  Captain  Dowers  says, ••  We  Id  11)1 
fathoms  sand,  while  in  stays  ;  but  observed  black  rocks  and  less  wiiter  in  iiianTJ 
places. 

"  This  reef  appears  to  run  ofl"  West  for  3  miles,  and  l:hen  extends  to  the  N>.ll.l'orj 
some  distance.  We  counted  10  above  water.  'I'bey  are  all  barren  rocks.  (xi'i)iiiii?J

i< surrounded  by  many  dangers,  whose  positions  arc  shown  on  the  chart.     All  masters 
of  vessels  hound  to  it,  in  coming  uj)  the  straits,  had  best  keep  the  Cuba  shore  on

ilie  island  nnder  their  lee,  and  run  the  shore  close  on  board  until  they  bring  the  ilag- 
<iatl":ind  houses  to  bear  due  South,  then  you  will  open  the  entrance  into  the  harbor. 
when  voii  must  haul  in  S.VV, ;   then  ahead  of  you  a  small  key,  with  store-houses  on  it. 
will  a|)|iear.  and  at  your  entrance  into  the  harbor,  a  low  black  rock  on  your  starlioard 
side;  L'iv  't  'I  berth,  and  in  running  in,  you  will  observe  a  large  red  Cal  Hank  on  your 
tiiirt  side,  wiiich  you  may  run  close  to  until  you  come  abreast  of  a  low  black  point  of

ihereon.  vou  may  drop  your  anchor  in  ."J  or  I   fathoms  water,  until  a  ])ilot  boards  you, 
unless  lie  have  met  you  ou  the  outside.    Ragged  Island  is  distinguishable  from  all  other 
surrounding  keys  by  a  lofty  bill  about  the  middle  of  it,  the  number  of  houses  iind  inclo- 
sures,  and  by  th«!  tlagstati' that  !ii)pears  on  it.    N'essels  running  far  from  ('a])e  Maize,  or

ward, lliere  is  i)lciity  of  water  for  vessels  of  any  draft.     South  of  Ranged   Island, 
I  distant  10  miles,  there  are  three  small  keys  close  to  each  other,  called  the  Brothers, 
that  have  from  2  to  .'J  fathoms  water  close  up  to  them.     St.  Domingo  Key  lies  S.  i  K. 
of  lia'.'ired  Island,  distant  9  leagues,  to  leeward  of  which  there  is  plenty  of  water  ;  hut 
i  no  vessel  sliould  attempt  to  edge  the  bank  to  windward  of  it,  until  close  under  the  lee

ediieiif  ilie  straits,  on  which  many  vessels  have  been  lost. 

[',Pi.j — Froai  the  first  of  January  to  the  last  of  .Vpril  they  flow  from  10  to  18  inches,  Tiilv.s. 
iaml  the  tide  (hat  Hows  an  hour  after  the  rising  of  the  moon,  is  uniformly  fi  or  H  inches 
hiuher  than  the  tide  which  (lows  after  her  setting. 

Thev  have  freipicntly.  during  the  above  months,  been  observed  not  to  flow  more  than 
jfrom  ()  to  1-  inches.  The  spring  tides,  during  the  above  months,  generally  rise  from 
lew  10  inches  liiglier  than  the  common  tides. 

From  tlie  beginning  of  May  to  the  first  of  October,  both  tides  gradually  flow  till 
Ithev  arrive  at  tlie  height  of  from  10  inches  to  2  feet  4  inches,  and  from  IH  inches  to  3.

Directions  fur  .tailing  from  Jamaica,  through  the  Windward  Channel  and  Cruoked 

Island  Passage. 

Those  who  are  bound  from  Jamaica  to  Kurope,  or  any  part  of  the  North-eastward, 
libuidd,  if  possible,  take  the  Crookeil  Island  Passage  in  preference  lo  any  other.  From 
IPoiiit  Miiraiit.  Jaiu;iica,  you  should  endeavor  lo  gain  Hasting  as  soon  as  jjossihle  ;  ;ind 
bv taking  advantage  of  the  wind's  shifting  from  N.N.K.  to  I'J.ast,  which  it  ixiMierally 
Idjes  in  the  night,  you  will  g.iiii  ground  very  fast;  and  by  working  up  under  I'ape 
iDamc  Marie,  on  Ilayti,  you  avoid  ii  strong  set  to  the  S.VV.,  caused  by  the  trade- 
Ivind. 

There  is.  at  times,  great  diniculty  in  WM)rking  arouinl  Cape  Maize,  0A<.i:ig  to  the 
litfon:;  lee  current  which  generallv  jirevails  with  a  strong  N.N.K.  wind,  particularly 
In  the  inoiilhs  of  January,  February,  .March,  and  April,  ituring  which  the  strong  Norlh- 
lerly  winds  jirevail.  This  current  is  found  to  run  strongest  between  Cajie  Maizt;  ainl 
Cape  Dune  .^larie,  (or  Donna  Maria.)  the  strivim  occu|)ying  a  space  in  bre.adtb,  equal 
•  the  distance  l)etween  the  contracting  points,  and  runs  at  the  rate  of  '2  knots  tin 
kour,  setting,  during  the  strong  \.V,.  winds,  to  the  S.W.,  between  the  N.l].  enil  of  Ja- 
naiea  and  the  Morant  Keys.  "1 

Some  cnanniinders,  after  clearing  (he  East  end  of  Jamaica,  have  stood  over  to  the 
Cuba  shore,  in  order  to  nmiid  ("ape  Maize  ;  but  they,  also,  have  found  a  strong  lee 
fcurreiif,  ami  having  little  or  no  land  wind  to  assist  (hem  in  working  iilong  the  South 
[ideof  that  land  in  the  months  above  mentioned,  they  have  at  last  been  obliged  to

Ii  is  to  be  understood  that  the  following  directions  are  not  intended  as  a  standing 
ale  lor  working,  at  all  times,  around  Cape  Maize.     In  the  fine  season  there  are  va-

and  this  island  appears  also  wluiii  yon  are  some  leagues  further  distant  from  it  ih;,,,

be  some  hesitation  in  reeo(xnizirifr  St.  Ha'-tholoniew's  ;  !ind  thus  it  is  jiroper  to  iiiitici 
that  the  latter,  seen  uiion  its  own  paralhd,  appears  small,  and  wif'i  four  peaks,  inrij. 
iiiir  North  and  South,  and  oecnpyinii:  almost  iis  wludc!  extent  ;  and  if  von  nrc  iim

rsorth,  and  another  to  the  Soiilh,  at  a  very  short  distance.  As  this  island  has  iit'iilifr

taken  for  any  other.  To  the  West  of  thi.s  you  may  also  see  the  larsre  sirail  (owan!,

If  ;i  small  islet  aii|)ears  to  the  West  of,  and  very  near  to  St.  Kustaliiis,  tliat  nm 
not  confuse  you  ;  ("or  it  is  the  N.W.  extremity  of  that  island  ;  and  on  [xetiina  ncarc

J  From  the  De/rotero  <1«  las  Antillas.] 

On  approachinfif  Willougbby's  liay,  u|'on  tbe  S.K.  coast,  ^reat  caution  is  required, 
jiiiiiiler  to  avoid  its  rocky  shoals,  and  a  pilot  will  be  requisite  forstranjrers  who  enter 

me. 

From  (his  bay  the  coast  continues  to  the  Westward  very  clear,  and   in  it  you  will

Itlie coast  extends  to  the  North-  but  has  a  rocky  shoal,  of  the  leiiirih  of  -J',  miles,  which 
lisvata  aiilc  and  a  half  from  (he  coast.      Hetwe<'ii  this  shoal  and  (he  r'oast  there  is  a 
lp,i<'iiiue  lit  for  any  vessel,  but  it  ouiilil  not  to  be  attempted  without  a  pilot. 

I  FiKa  ,h'hiis():i's  Point  the  coast  eoiitinues  to  tbe  North,  to  the  KIVE  ISL.ANDS,  on  Five  h'fTiul--

blow  very  rarely,  and  are  not  to  l)e  feared  exc«;pt  in  the  winter  season. 

Il  isofleiiiimes  inoie  dillicult  to  get  out  of  the  harbor  ol'Trinily  than  to  enter,  ptir-

then  be  able  to  double  a  little  rock  detached  from  the  reef  which  surrounds  l'')rt

[From  the  Derrotero,  &c.] 

Tlie  Island  of  Santa  Lucia  shows  high,  and  in  detached  hills,  with  various  [icnk- 
sutliciently  visible  ;  in  particular,  two.  at  its  extreme  S.W.  iiar(,  called  the  I'lfoiiv 
which  may  be  seen  at  the  dislanc"  of  1(1  leagues;  they  are  black,  and  covered  uiiii 
Wood. 

At  the  N'.\\  .  part  of  this  island  there  is  an  islet  named  the  Gros  Islet,  wliich  j, 
rather  more  than  a  mile  distanl  from  I'oiiit  Salines,  lo  (he  S.W".  Ueiwein  ."^iiliiR's 
l'oin(  and  the  (iros  Islet  there  is  a  rock  named  Hnniaux.  'i'o  the  Sonih  of  the  islei  is 
the  IJay  of  tiros  Isk^t,  tir  i-oads((?ad  of  St.  Croix,  with  excellent  aneluu-age  iorcvcrv 
class  of  vessels,  having  a  dentli  of  from  17  fathoms  down  to  5  fathoms,  w  liicli  are  liaii.c 
at  half  a  mile  from  the  coast  ;  between  the  coa^t  and  the  Gros  Islet  (here  is  a  pMssiije 
for  small  vessels  only,  it  being  impeded  by  a  shoal,  on  w  hie h  there  are  onl\  -J  I;ii1i(jI;a 
of  water.  The  CJrus  Islei  is  foul,  and  you  ought  not  to  approacli  nearer  to  ii  il,;,i, ■: 
cables"  length. 

..Near  Jirelolte  Point,  to  the  South  of  (iros  Islet  IJriy,  there  is  an  islet  wliich  i'drnis 
a  strait,  |iracticable  I'or  any  vessel,  it  having  7  fathoms  of  water  in  it.  This  isldiv, 
like  the  (iros  Islet,  foul,  and  you  must  not  approach  nearer  to  it  than  -J  ca!i!es'  Imi.iIi:

lenuth  out  from  it.  On  all  this  coast  lliere  are  i'nnn  8  to  l(t  fathoms,  ;il  hrilf  ii  iiiili 
from  it,  and  you  may  anchor  in  any  part,  tlniutrh  the  safest  anchorage  is  in  llie  Kiaiinf 
St.  Croix,  where  there  is  good  shelter  from  the  sea. 

About  lA  mile  to  the  S.  by  1".  of  lin.lotte  Point,  there  is  a  rocky  slioal  exiciiiliiii 
iicarlv  in  that  direction,  which  is  a  mile  in  leiiLflh.  and  about  -J  cables  in  brc'iddi;  ii^

uiiioiig  the  trees. 

The  next  mark  you  have  (for  you  iriust  be  very  atti^ntive  in  keeping  a  good  look- 
out)  is  a  break  in  the  land,  through  vvhich  ajipear  the  houses  and  bnildiiiirs  of  u  idun.

eo  ist ;  an  I  althoii'jh  with  that  dei'tb,  in  some  places,  the  land  cannot  be  seen  I'roni  the 
vessel,  even  in  clear  weather,  this  can  occtision  little  or  no  incoMveiiience  ;  as  wlicii 
near  the  1  ititiide  of  your  place  of  destination,  it  is  easy  to  [)nt  the  vess(d  on  ihc  |i(irt 
tack,  and  run  in  to  siiiht  (he  land.  Nor  is  there  any  difliciilty  iti  exaniiiiiiiL^  il.  uhcn 
necessary,  as  yon  have  onlv  to  keep  more  away  on  the  port  tack  ;  Iml  in  Mich  cast'sit 
is  very  tu-cessary  to  be  extremely  careful  with  the  lead.  W  he  ,  nijiht  comes  (in,  jinl 
you  are  near  your  destination,  it  is  proper  to  anchor;  as  also  '  hen  it  is  calm,  wiiliin 
the  limits  of  the  tides,  (described  before,)  as  the  current,  or  set  of  the  ilodilijili, 
carries  u  vi;ssel  towards  the  coast. 

Oettin'T  ascronnd  on  tins  coast  is  not  ffenerally  nttemied  with  much  danijcr.  iis  i],.

that,  even  whi'r<  a  vessel  is  in  (he  rejalar  trick,  althoiii^h  in!)  ftlhoms  of  wiiter.  slic  ui|| 
raise  the  mud  as  if  iiloufrhinir  it  with  her  keel.  This  may  cause  liiieasim'ss  id  tliiKp 
who  witness  such  a  thing  for  the  first  time,  thoufrh  it  is  the  coiiseiiuenee  of  a  viry 
natural  ctuisc. 

The  islands  of  Hamire.  the  Const, lijlc^,  and  the  Health  Islands,  are  the  onlv  poiiits  | 
of  this  coast  which  are  likely  to  caii'^e  the  K)'<s  of  a  vessel,  if  she  trets  ashore  na  tlieiii. 
In  order  to  avoid  this,  it  is  needful  to  jiay  atlcntinn  to  the  currents,  that  they  da  not  I 
drive  yon  upon  them;  and  not  to  attempt  to  jisiss  between  the  Constaldes.  uiil("is 
with  a  free  wind  ;  with  the  contrary,  it  is  better  to  anchor  at  3  leagues  from  ilicni.dr 
to  pass  outside  of  Ihem,  taking  cue  to  give  the  shoal,  of  which  we  have  idrendy 
spoken,  a  sufficient  berth.  r 

On   the  whole  of  this  coast  there  are  no  other  harbors  than  those  formed  liy  the 
mouths  of  the  rivers,  llio  greater  iiart  of  which  require  practical  know  Icdtic  id  cnier  I

all  this  CO  ist  sninn.s   are  unknown,  and  there  is  not  the  smallest  risk   in  ;nich(irii'L' 
where  one  deems  it  to  be   necessary,  there  can  be  no  necessity  to  run   raslilv  tar  one  I 
of  these  anchorites,  hiii  rather  wait  at  anchor  outside  for  a  jiihit,  or  till  such  tii

.Notwithstandiinj^  the  small  heiirlit  of  the  shore  near  tliese  shoals,  in  line  and  clear 
ffoitlier,  it  may  hi;  discovered  heforc  you  reach  them. 

Tiie  whole  extent  we  ascribe  lo  the  shallow  waKtr  is  not  eipially  dan'r-.rous.  and  it 
i$roiiin-!cl  thai  placijs  exist  where  larji;!'  ships  may  cross  llu'iii.  .As  ilie  wlmie  coast 
isDl'very  little  inlc'resl,  one  will  do  well  lo  k(,'ep  ai  a  distance  I'roiii  it.

Irmaos  Point,  is  called  the  Liivandera  ;  and  tne  Ihird  one,  called  tin'  I  reus,  is  PJ 
liiilt's  \.f .  1  N.  from  Tuharoa  Poin',  aiul  opposite  St.  Alberto  liay.  Tlii'  sea  breaks 
Cii.hi  I'llly  wish  j;rc  it  force  o;i  these  two  lasi.  [i.irticiilarly  w  lien  the  wind  blows  from

Wo  liMci.l  till'  soiiadiii  js  iiicreasiii'r  re,nilarly  and  very  fa  ;t  towards  the  sea.  the  surest 
im)i)f  lliat  no  more  shallow  water  is  to  he  met,  ihoiiLfh  in  many  cii.irts  aiioiiur  shoal  is 
imrki' I  M.  '4'-) '  N,  of  this  place.  This  we  consider  as  an  error,  for  the  reasons  pre- 
viii'i-ijy  Slated. 

TliL'  siiiKiiliii'JTs  arc  of  no  service  to  indicate  the  apjiroach  of  this  jilacc.  The  tiatiirc 
ol'ilie  bo'toin  seems  to  he  the  same  everywhere,  and  we  found  u  always  a  mixiure  of 
white  111, idrepores  and  sand,  and  in  soini;  inslances  siravel. 

Tlie  ffrceii  color  of  the  water,  like  every  shallow  water,  deserves  nior  ■  notice,  and 
yoiim;iy  consider  yourself  safe  as  hniir  as  you  have  not  reached  this  i>rceii  water. 

Till'  eUiTi'iit  runs  N.N.VV.  and  .N.W..  at  the  ruK;  of  nearly  0  miles  an  liuiir  :  and  the 
till  rises  from  (i  to  !l)  feel,  iiccordinu'  to  the  new  or  full  moon.  Tide.

rmiiidinir  places.  The  shallowness  of  the  water,  the  im|»ossil>ility  of  crossinu  over 
till'  hur.  anil  above  all.  the  little  benelit  to  be  derived  from  this  ]>lace.  are  more  than 
sullii'ieiil  reas(ms  to  keep  at  a  distam'c  from  it,

liinciiiui.  and  at  '.\  to  4  Iciigiies  from  the  laud,  the  soundinirs  beirin  to  indicate  the 
sli;ill(nv  water  of  the  .Abrollios.  This  shallow  place  maybe  considered  to  i  xteiid 
Niirih  and  South  IH  to  'JO  leasrHes.  and  East  find  West  not  less  than  -JO  leairnes  :  and 
liidUL'h  the  whole  extent  is  not  equally  ilangerous,  yet  ii  vessel  not  bound  to  this  place, 
lull  lid  well  to  keep  away  from  it. 

The  Abrollios  Islands,  or  Santii  Ihirbara  Ishinds.  are  four  in  number,  not  including 
;wii  or  three  Hat  rocks.  The  'vvo  Northern  islands  are  the  hi:rbcst.  The  Westerik 
oiii'  is  nearly  EiO  feet  iibov(!  the  seti  :  the  other  115.  They  may  be  ))erceivcd  from 
liip  iiip  (if  a  frigate,  in  Inr;  weather.  "20  miles, 

.Nddiing  is  to  be  I'oniid  on  these  islands  except  some  reeds  and  cactus.  Numerous 
inlie-i  of  birds  inhabit  them.  \  I'ew  turtles  are  to  be  met  with.  Fishes  iire  plenty, 
Ri.iil  the  fishermen  of  I'orlo  Sccuro  repair  there  to  fvsh.iuul  dry  what  they  call  garou- 
JK.    This  is  conscfpienlly  the  only  thing  a  vessel  can  expect, 

\\(  li.ive  already  stated  that  the  extent  assigned  to  the  shallow  water  is  not  every- 
where ilangerous.  In  the  same  extent,  it  apjiears  that  from  the  E,S  !■;.  ni>  to  S,  by 
N  .aii'l  \V.,  lartre  ships  may  ai'imiach  t'roni  one  to  ei>rht  miles,  in  line  wi-atlier.  The 
oiiiv  pari  we  had  no  cliance  of  sounding,  and  which  ri'inains  consequently  doubtful,  is 
tii;it  part  com|)rise(l  between  the  S,  tind  S,S.E, 

West  of  this  island  there  is  ii  ehiinnel  of  nearly  3  le.aeucs  wide,  w  here  the  sound- 
iiiLN  show  r.  om  10  to  1")  lathoms,  excei^t  in  a  few  places  wliert>  it  shows  only  "^  tath- 
niih.  'I'he  WesKM'ii  f'  '  '  of  this  channel  is  formed  by  more  shallow  water,  called  the 
Piiri'ilas,  (or  Willis.)  \vlii(di  is  very  dantrerous.  Accordiiiir  tti  the  rejiort  ot'  the  n.ativc 
niiirii'.ers,  the  tides  are  irregular  on  the  Abndlios;  lite  current  runs  accordiiiir  to  the 
iviiiih.iail  not  over  three-tenths  of  a  mile  an  hour.  The  sonndiiiirs  show  no  mud  over 
the  whole  extent  of  the  shallow  water  of  Abrollios,  and  if  any  is  to  be  perceived,  it 
isariTtaiii  sisjfii  vou  are  no  lontrcr  tb(>re.  The  nature  of  the  bottom  in  the  Abrollios

the  wiiiils  from  the  South  |)revail,  and  clear  in  N.l'<.  winds.  At  sea,  with  a  eh  ar  luir-

from  70  to  MO  fathoms,  muddy  hoftom.  In  ap|)roaching  the  coast,  the  soiiinlinirs 
diminish  gradually.  At  3  leagues  distant  the  soundings  are  still  from  37  to  In  fath- 
oms, and  JO  to  .'U)  at  4  miles  distant. 

'i'he  \v!i;de  (-oast  is  safe,  and  may  hi;  coasted  at  3  or  4  miles  ofl",  passing  hctueen 
the  Irniaos  Islands  and  Moleijnes  do  Sul,  in  17  fathoms  water.  The  only  (laiigir.s  to 
be  avoided  are  the  islands  and  islets,  which  can  he  perceived  at  3  leagues  oil,  and 
round  whi(di  there  are  15  fathoms  water. 

The  usual  aiudioriiges  are  at  Isle  de  ("ampexe,  Point  Pinheira,  and  La  Laguiia.

The  island  of  St.  C'alharine  is  ahont  !)  leagues  long,  and  i(s  greatest  width  does  nnt 
exceed  10  miles.  It  forms,  with  the  continent,  a  strait  in  which  vessels  fiiul  excel-

'I'he  piiinis  to  distinguish  the  entrances  into  the  strait  are  the  following  :

The  city  of  Nostra  Senhora  do  Deste.fo  is  situated  in  21-  35'  Ja  '  S.  latitude,  and 
in  18  •  -A  I'  '{)"  VV,  long.  ;   th('  variation  is  5"  2\i    K. 

incoming  from  the  North  liar  to  the  city, we  frequently  found  lint  7  feet  water. and 
a  muddy  lioltom  ;  hut  tlu;  mud  is  at  least  5  feet  dei'|),ainl  a  vessel  lies  easy  :  at  high- 
water  Ihe  passage  is  made.  Tlie'riinnlation,  which  drew  13  feet  I  inches,  was  .'<  days 
coining  up  to  tlu!  city.  She  was  dragged  through  the  mud  hy  lier  anchors,  when  the 
water  was  low  or  the  tide  weak. 

In  coming  in  hy  tlw;  South  liar,  you  must  have  a  fair  wind,  hieh-water.  sn;ooth  sea, 
and  fine  weather,  without  which  the  currents  may  throw  you  (m  Fort  isle,  or  on  the 
Point  dos  Naufrairodos,  distant  from  each  other  only  -JHO  fathoms.  The  vessel  shouhi 
draw  less  tli.iu  l.'i  feet.  The  following  is  the  route  to  lake  :  steer  on  a  line  drawn 
from  ('oral  Island  to  Fort  Island,  towtir-ls  the  last  island  ;  when  you  are  alireast  of 
the  two  islands  Dos  Piipiirios,  (they  are  on  your  left.)  you  w  ill  have  the  three  Irniaos 
islands,  and  the  Moleques  do  Sul  on  your  riirht,  and  you  will  hrinir  the  cape  to  the  N. 
K.  to  open  the  passage  ;  arrived  at  (his  point,  you  will  steer  directly  in  the  michlle, 
until  yon  find  yourself  South  of  the  isle  dos  (Jnrdos,  remarkahlehy  a  single  tree,  ele- 
vated on  the  summit.  Ste<'rthen  so  as  to  pass  Mast  of  the  Isle  dos  Cardos  one  (^r  two 
cables' length  distant,  and  from  thence  continue  until  yon  find  yourself  K.  or  \\  .  with 
the  Sontii  point  of  Eiiceado  tio  IJrito,  half  a  mile  distant.  Follow  the  coast  of  the 
contiiient,  until  you  come  up  to  Cape  I'esqueiro  Fundo,  at  1  cahles'  leneth  distant. 
Vou  will  pass  the  village  of  Knceailo  do  Urito,  and  at  a  little  distance  forward  is  a 
grmip  of  houses  or  cabins,  forming  the  little  villag*-  Dos  Cedros.  On  your  ritrht,  at  a 
freat  distance,  you  will  perceive  the  village  of  Roheirao,  situated  on  the  island  of  St. 
Catharines,  and  almost  before  you  Isle  Largo. 

Hcl'ore  tirriving  to  this  last,  yon  will  have  to  avoid  a  reef  of  rocks  always  under 
water.  You  are  on  this  reef  when  the  tovvtirs  of  the  cathedral  in  the  city  ure  \\  .  of 
the  Isle  Largo,  and  those  of  (  ardos  by  the  fort  of  the  South  bar.

fur  the  steeples  of  the  city,  till  you  come  to  the  anchorage  indicated  between  Isles 
Gato  and  \'iiihas. 

There  are  on  the  const  of  the  island  of  St.  Catharine,  from  Point  Ru[)a,  the  North

breaks  in  .35°  1 1'  S.  latitude,  and  5.'>^  'jf  15"  VV.  longitude;  it  is  1 1  miles  South  id  i lie 
island  of  Flor.'-s. 

The  second  is  Archimedes  Hank.  It  is  very  small,  and  is  situated  S.  i  V..,  (iriie,) 
from  Monte  Vidi  ii,  at  !',>  miles  distance. 

'I'lie  third  is  New  Hank,  formed  within  a  few  years,  very  probably  by  tin  sand 
drifted  from  the  little  bank  of  Ortiz.  It  is  situated  on  the  Southern  side  ol  the 
river. 

The  fourth,  and  the  largest  of  the  whole,  is  the  Ortiz;  its  Kastern  extniiiityis 
only  half  a  mile  wide,  and  is  North  of  .New  I5ank  ;  its  Western  extremity  siirKJies 
to  within  a  very  short  distance  of  ('(donia  ;  it  is  nearer  the  mouth  than  the  Soiiiliside 
of  the  river.     Its  greatest  width  is  11  to  12  utiles.  ; 

The  fifth  is  the  ("hico  Bank,  a  dangerous  bank,  by  reason  of  the  irre<riilarity  of  tlie* 
eoundings  on  the  edges.     It  is  jilaced  between  the  Ortiz  Ihiiik  and  the  South  side. 

The  sixth  and  seventh  are  the  Hanks  of  Santiago  and  of  Lara;  ami  the  eigliili.  ii:nih, 
nnd  tenth,  those  of  Ciudad,  Camerones.  and  the  I'almas.  all  situated  on  the  miiiii'  Miie, 
<'xcept  the  Palinas,  which  is  between  the  contluenci;  of  the  Lruguay  and  I'ariiia.  on 
the  way  from  HiU'iios  Ayres  to  Colonia. 

In   going  to  Maldonado,  there  is  no  bank  to  fear,  but  in  uoing  to  Monte  Vidtii,  ycm 
niusi  avoid   Lnglish  and  Archimedes  Hanks;  in   iroing  to  liuenos  Ayres  you  li.ivc  to 
pass  all  the  banks.     Vessels  do  not  trenerally  take  a  pilot  in  going  to  .Monte  Vidid,  hut : 
they  rarely  omit  to  take  one  in  goinsr  <o  Hiieiios  Ayres. 

The  pilots  who  conduct  vessels  to  Muenos  Ayres  live  nt  iVIonte  N'ideo  or  Point  liulio.; 
They  keep  under  sail,  or  at  anchor,  near  the  <-oast,  in  schooners  or  cutters. 

The  government  of  the  United  Provinces  of  La  Plata  caused  to  be  pliiccil,  si  viral 
years  since,  large  buoys  on  the  edtres  of  most  of  the  l)aiiks,  i)ui  bad  weather  hih!  tlii 
strong  currents  have  caused  them  to  disappear.  The  goveinment  of  Moiilr  \  iilco; 
have  ercctcfl  a  tower  containing  a  revidving  light  on  the  isle  of  I'lnres.  eicviitiii  !)9'! 
feel  above  the  level  of  the  sea  ;  it  can  be  perceiveil  in  the  iiiirht  at  l.'j  or  Ki  niilrMlis- 
tance,  and  serves  to  avoid  the  Knglish  and  Archimedes  Hanks.  It  is  badly  iitK  iiiltdi 
and  frequently  not  lishted. 

WINDS,  tiDKS,  AND  CUHKKNTS.— At  the  entrance  of  the  river,  ami  mi  Mimte 
Video,  the  |>revailiiig  winds  are  tiie  N.K.  and  S.VV. 

At  Hueiios  Ayres  and  at  ( 'olonia.  ihev  are  N  .N.W.,  S.I],  and  S.\V  . 

During  the  summer,  and  in  line  weather,  the  winds  blow  in  the  whide  river,  wiih 
considerable  reeularity,  from  the  K.  to  the  S.K.  from  10  oclock  in  (he  ^lorlllllL^  until 
sunset.     In  the  night  the  winds  vary  to  the  North. 

The  winds  from  S,  W.  and  S.S.W"  are  known  about  the  Kiver  Plate,  by  the  niim»| 
of  the  Pamperos,  from  the  Pani|ias,  trom  which  they  coiiie. 

The  Pampero  lig..ts  up  the  sky.  the  same  as  the  N  \V.  winds  in  Provence,  Jiml  ill* 
N.H.  on  the  coasts  of  Urittany  ;  it  blows  UMially  after  rnin.  or  when  the  wind  lm« 
varied  from  the  N.  to  .N.W.,  an<l  to  W  .  N.W..  and  in  summer  after  a  ciiliii  nml  ^irf' 
hot  day.   Oftentimes  it  conies  allul  once, with  a  slromr  wind  from  the  N.i;..nliiiiiliei

The  bnst  time  to  leave  the  river  is  before  hiirh-water  with  the  last-qimrtcr  flofid, 
bcciiu.s(!  u'lioii  tlie  el)l)  iniikes  it  sots  directly  upon  the  reef.  Al  eacii  side  of  ilic  mouth 
are  ^ni^ii  qiKintities  of  drift-wood.  Man}-  frugmeiits  of  iif^ht  volcanic  scoria-  wi.to 
picked  up,  possibly  washed  from  ihe  volcanic  mountains  on  the  Western  side  of  the 
continent. 

Nanci-trees  (a  kind  of  willow)  prrow  on  the  banks  of  the  river  in  trrea^  abundance  ; 
they  are  cliiclly  the  red  sauci,  which  is  more  durable  than  the  white.  It  is  iit  for 
pumps,  |)unip-l)o.\es,  l)oats,  and  many  other  pur|)oses  for  which  elm  is  fre(juciitly 
used.  The  very  ^vindiiijj^  course  of  this  river,  and  the  rich  soil  throutfh  which  it 
flows,  aH'ords  facilities  for  isolating  numerous  peidiisulas,  and  artificially  wati  ,iig  a 
very  large  extent  ofcouiitry.  No  defence  is  so  certain  against  the  Indians  as  a  ditch 
tilled  with  water,  no  matter  how  small.  They  never  willingly  cross  water  in  their 
attacks. 

Had  Sir  John  N'arhoroiigli  seen  this  part  of  the  country,  he  would  not  have  given 
so  niiproiiiising  a  report  to  his  master.  How  the  Spaniards  could  have  overlooked 
it,  liaving  a  settlement  so  near,  upon  the  peninsula  ol  San  Josef,  is  surprising.  Per- 
haps the  liK'iaiis  were  numerous,  and  kept  them  within  bounds. 

Santa  lOleiia  harbor  may  be  easily  known  by  some  huinmocky  hills  on  the  North- 
east projecting  [joint,  on  the  Easternmost  of  which  there  is  a  remarkable  stone  re- 
sembling a  monumentul  record,  but  it  is  a  natural  production.  The  best  ancliorage  is 
at  the  N.  W.  corner  of  the  bay,  in  <>  or  7  fathoms,  but  not  too  near  to  t!ie  shore,  for 
when  the  sea  is  heavy  the  ground-swell  breaks  for  some  distance  off.  In  working 
into  the  bay  the  d-fathoms  bunk  must  be  avoided,  for  wuich  the  low  island  is  a  good 
mark. 

It  is  high-water,  at  full  and  change,  at  4  o'clock,  and  the  tide  rises  at  springs  17 
feet.  « 

Th(!  water  that  is  contained  in  the  wells  is  too  brackish  to  be  worth  consideration  ; 
nor  i.s  there  any  fresh  water  to  be  obtained  from  any  part  of  the  harbor.  Of  fuel,  a 
tem[)orary  supj)ly  may  be  procured  from  the  small  shrubby  tree  whicu  is  described  in 
the  accuiuit  ol'  I'ort  Desire,  and  which  is  tolerably  abundant  here.  (Juanacoes,  os- 
triches, armadilloes,  and  the  cavia  or  I'atagonian  hare,  are  to  be  procured,  as  are  also 
wild  ilucks,  partridges,  sni|)es,  and  rails,  but  tish  seem  to  be  scarce.  The  guanaco 
atlbrds  an  excellent  food,  but  it  is  a  ditlicult  animal  to  a[)proach. 

Ill  a[)j)roacliiiig  Port  Santa  Elena  from  the  Norl'-ward,  there  are  several  rocks  near 
the  sluirc  which  are  very  little  above  the  water,  and  iherc  is  a  considerabb!  roel'in  the 
oiHiig  called  the  Salaberria  lieef,  situated  U  miles  !•;.  by  S.  from  Cape  Waso,  and  .\. 
liccf.  E.  k  I').,  8  mil(!s,  from  the  N.E.  trend  of  the  North  head  of  the  port,    it  is  a  dry  rock, 

and  is  near  the  extremity  of  a  ridge  which  probably  projects  off  from  the  latter  point, 
for  there  are  two  dry  rocks  in  the  same  line  of  bearing,  one  li  mile,  and  tlu;  oilier 
;H  miles  from  the  jxiint,  besides  several  patches  which  break.  The  tide  sets  rather 
• 'roiigly  along  tlu;  shore,  which  is  frontetl  by  reefs  for  a  or  3  miles  oil",  (ireat  caiilion 
sboiiid  theretore  he  used  in  approaching  the  coast,  as  the;  water  is  deep,  and  if  ho- 
caliiied  it  may  be  necessary  to  aiichur,  which  will  be  in  at  least  3i)  fathoms  water. 

Should  the  above  reef  be  as  coniiuuous  as  it  apptnrs,  there  ought  to  be  good  riding 
in  the  bay  between  (Jape  Uaso  and  Port  Santa  lOlcna. 

I'.etwecn  the  South  iunid  of  Port  Santa  Elena  and  Cape  DosRahias  are  two  bights 
in  the  coast,  the  Southernmost  of  which  is  considt-rable.  and  may  probalily  alliird  a 
good  ancliorage.  t.'api;  Dos  IJahias  is  a  rounded  point,  with  a  hill  close  to  the  s<'a  on 
the  most  projecting  jiari  of  the  cape,  and  the  small  islet  of  Arce  to  the  S.E.of  it. 

Uetween  lj(;oiies  Isle  (si'iuctimes  called  Ship  Island)  and  Harbor  Isle  is  an  an- 
chorage, good  in  point  of  safety,  but  somewhat  disagreeable  on  account  of  the  eddy 
tides.  The  eye  is  a  sullicient  guide  in  entering,  as  the  shore  is  bold,  and  there  is  no 
hidden  danger.  There;  is  generally  a  small  stream  of  I'rcish  water  at  llie  Norlli-west 
part  of  Eeoiies  Isle,  but  it  cannot  be  depended  upon  during  the  summer  nioiillis.  A 
few  bushes  may  serve  for  a  tempoi'a.-y  supply  of  fuel,  but  tliere  are  not  eiioiii,di  lor  a 
store.  There  is  no  passage  between  the  two  islands  except  for  boats.  Tli;-  ground 
towards  the  narrow  part  of  tlic  passage  is  rocky  and  uneven.  The  tide  sets  direc'ly 
through,  causing  eddies  which  will  turn  a  ship  round  at  her  moorings  against  a  strong 
breeze. 
Harbor  Islet.  1  n  the  best  anchorage  nbrenst  of  the  middle  of  Harbor  Islet  there  are  4  fatlioins  at 
low-water,  over  a  clean  sandy  bottom. 

In  apiH'oacbing  this  aiichnragc,  the  set  of  the  tide  should  be  considered,  in  order  to 
determine  whether  to  pass  round  the  North  or  round  tin;  South  side  of  the  island. 
The  lloo  1-tide  runs  strongly  to  the  Eastward  round  the  Northern  side,  between  it 
and  the  main-land. 
E'^g  Ilurbor,  Egg  Harbor,  formerly  called  Port  San  Antonio,  is  one  of  the  best  ports  on  tl-o 
coast.  In  entering,  a  vessel  may  pass  on  either  side  of  Valdes  Isle,  and  steer  by  the 
eye.     There  is  no  hidden  danger.     Southerly  winds  send  in  a  good  deal  of  swell,  but

extend  oH"  tlie  North  shore,  or  that  lie  nearly  in  mid-channel.  Tiicre  is  Lniod  an- 
chorage oil' the  mouth.  IJy  waiting,  therefore,  for  low-water,  all  the  dangers  that 
exist  will  he  seen,  and  the  vessel  easily  dropped  in  with  the  tide,  slioulil  the  wind  be, 
as  it  generally  is,  Westerly.  If  it  be  fair,  it  will  be  advisable  for  the  shi|)  to  be  in  the 
entrance  at  slack  water;  or,  if  the  breeze  be  strong  enough.  :i  little  before  ;  as  the 
water  is  deep  on  the  South  shore,  there  seems  to  be  no  real  danger  tlr.it  may  not  bo 
avoided  by  a  careful  lookout  for  kelp,  which  on  that  coast  always  grows  upon,  and 
theref'i»re  planly  indicates  th«^  existence  of,  rocky  frronnd.  The  course  in  is  about

chorage  is  oil'  the  ruins  on  the  North  shore,  and  tlie  vessel  should  be  moored  ;  tlie 
tide  sets  in  and  out  regularly. 

Four  miles  aliove  the  ruins  there  is  a  small  peninsula,  connected  by  a  narrow  isth- 
mus to  the  North  shore  ;  by  sending  a  party  up,  and  stationing  men  with  guns  on  the 
isthmus,  it,  is  very  likely  that  several  guanacoes  may  be  shot  as  tiiey  are  driven  I^rfrcsh- 
across  it;   for  the  peninsula  is  tlieir  favorite  feeding-place.    These  animals  are  abun-  mcnts.

%n  the  islets  further  u])  the  inlet,  and  in  many  of  the  valleys,  fire-wood  of  a  su])crior 
quality  may  be  freely  obtained. 

Captain  Fiizroy  adds  to  the  above  account  of  Captain  King's,  that  vessels  of  300 
tons  will  not  find  very  easy  access  to  Port  Desire,  the  narrow  and  hooked  entrance, 
the  strong  tides,  the  short  interval  of  slack  water,  and  tlie  uncertain  bottom,  are  sutli- 
cient  obstacles  to  deter  any  large  ship  from  making  the  experiment,  unless  urged  by 
necessity.  In  the  Ueagle's  last  visit  she  knocked  otl'  a  pie(;e  of  her  forefoot  a!j:;iiiist 
the  rock,  to  wiiieii  siie  has  given  her  name,  and  which  lies  N.  h  i''..,3  cables'  length, 
from  CliaU'ers  Point.  lOiitering  by  a  com])ass  course  is  out  of  the  question  ;  for  two 
leads,  ii  sharp  eye,  the  braces  in  hand,  and  moderate  sail  arc  [irecautions  absolutely 
necessary,  as  the  tide  hustles  a  vessel  throu'jrh  in  a  few  mi.  "tes.  even  air.iinst  a 
strong  wind.  With  Westerly  winds,  good  anchorage  may  be  obtained  outside  ilic 
port. 

Once  or  twice  in  the  year,  a  large  body  of  Indians  visit  this  place  as  if  to  recon- 
noitre, and  therefore  no  stragtrling  parlies  from  the  ship,  much  less  individuals,  should  Natives.

taire,  Ihonffh  convenient  for  sealing-vessels  to  anchor  in  while  employed  in  their  oc- 
cupation upon  Penijuin  Island. 

\V(dls  Point  is  in  lat.  11'  r^l'  20"  S.,  and  \o\^^.  6,5°  41'  40"  W.  ;  variation  20°  E.  ;

Mount  Wood  is  visible  from  the  deck  for  at  least  11  leaf.nies,  and  is  a  (jood  mark 
for  I'ort  San  Julian,  bein^  (Iat-topp(!d,  and  much  nntre  ehfVatcd  than  the  hind  ahout 
it:  the  trenil  of  the  coast  may  also  be  a  ijooil  mark  ;  and  as  the  land  about,  the  jiort 
i.s  hi'vlier  than  to  thu  Southward  or  iVortiiward,  no  mistak(!  can  oe  made.  The  North 
head,  (!ape  tJurioso,  is  a  low  point  juttinaf  out  to  tiio  Northward,  formed  of  clills  hor- 
izontally stratilii'd,  of  wiiiidi  the  upj)er  i)art  is  white  brown,  and  the  lower  generally 
black,  or  with  black  streaks. 

Kcepiii;r  Mount  Wood  W.S.VV.  i  W.  will  load  you  to  the  South  head,  which  will 
be  easily  distinq[uished  when  at  the  distance  of  0  or  7  miles,  or  more,  according  to  the 
state  of  the  weather. 

Mavintr  mude  out  the  two  points  which  form  the  entrance,  Curioso  and  Desengailo, 
steer  for  the  latter,  and  if  the  tide  docs  not  serve  for  going  in,  anchor  in  8  or  i)  fath- 
oms ahout  a  mile  N.I'j.  of  that  point,  till  a  proper  opporiunity  olT'ers  ;  but  if  the  wind 
be  S.  \'].,  or  the  weather  threatening,  stand  oil'  and  on.  An  extensive  bar  crosses  tiie 
entrance,  and  in  the  middle  dries  at  low-water,  leaving  a  channel  on  cither  side,  with 
soinetliing  less  tiian  2  fathoms  in  th(Mn,  and  rather  intricate.  But  the  great  rise  of 
tide  CM)  i\'(ii  at  the  highest  springs,  and  10  in  the  dcail  noai)s)  makes  the  passing  this 
bar  comparatively  easy.  (Ireat  attention  should  be  paid  t(»  llu;  set  of  the  tides,  whicii 
run  in  and  out  sometimes  at  the  rate  of  4  knots.  Ilalf-llood  is  the  best  time  for  en- 
tering, as  a  vessel  will  tiien  have  depth  enough  on  the  bar,  and  the  parts  that  dry  at 
low-w;ifer  will  still  be  visible.  The  most  convenient  anchorage  is  oil"  ShoU  Point, 
in  4  fathoms. 

No  fresh  water  ^vas  found  in  any  part  of  the  inlet,  its  iijipcr  division  being  a  chain 
of  Salinas  ;  hut  wood  may  be  i)rocured  with  ease  on  Shag  Island,  and  at  oilier 
f)iaces.  Abundance  of  sea-fowl  may  be  killed,  and  fish  of  various  kinds  are  ploMi- 
tiful. 

The  little  monument  erected  by  his  shipmates  to  the  memory  of  Lieutenant  Sholi, 
close  to  the  point,  stands  in  lO-^  1;>'  20''  S.,  and  G7 '  42'  VV.  It  is  high-water,  at  full

riu!  appearance  of  the  coast  about  the  entrance  of  the  river  of  Santa  Cruz  is  very 
renvirkabic.and  easy  to  be  known,  from  the  conspicuous  manner  in  which  it  makes 
either  lo  the  Northward  or  the  South-eastvvird.  From  the  latter  direction,  a  coast- 
line of  dill's  and  downs  of  considerable  height  is  seen  extending  from  the  Southward 
as  far  as  the  <'ye  can  r,;ach,  and  terminating  abruptly  in  the  high, steep,  llat-tonped 
clilf.  Mount  Entrance,  <if  which  the  ujiiier  part  descends  vertically  ;  the  lower  slopes 
oil',  and  appears  to  be  united  with  some  low  land,  which  will  be  seen  (accordiuL''  to 
the  disianc;)  oil")  two  or  three  jioints  of  the  compass  to  the  right  of  it.  Mount  iln- 
tranco  stands  on  the  South  side  of  the  river,  and  is,  by  aimnlar  measurement,  3JG 
feet  high  ;  the  low  laud  is  on  the  Nortliern  side,  and  outside  of  the  river. 

The  outer  part  of  the  bar,  on  which  at  low  spring-tide  there  are  14  feet,  lies  4  miles 
outside  of  Mount  l']iitrance.  There  are  several  shoal  patches  on  it  which  dry.  ornt 
least  break,  at  low-water.  Wcddcl  UluH"  kept  open  to  the  .North  of  Kntrance  Point. 
and  seen  over  Sea-lion  Island,  on  the  bearing  of  N.W.  by  VV.  il  W.,  seems  to  oiier 
the  most  direct  route  across  the  bar.  This  mark,  however,  does  not  atrree  with  lliiit 
given  by  Captain  King  and  Lieutenant  Weddel  ;  and  Captain  Fitz-Uoy  judiciously 
remarks,  that  where  the  tides  are  rapid  and  a  heavy  sea  frequent,  it  is  not  prohiilile 
that  a  bar  of  sand  and  shingle  stretching  across  the  mouth  of  a  large  river  should 
long  retain  its  position.  Strangers  are  therefore  adviseil  to  remain  oinside  the  bar, 
either  at  anchor  or  under  sail,  till  low-water,  when  its  shallow  parts  will  show  llieia- 
selves ;  and  tlien,  as  the  tide  rises  very  high,  to  weigh  at  half  or  fwo-lliinls  flood, 
and  steer  directly  in  tlirough  the  most  convenient  of  the  channels,  of  which  there 
\vere  three  open  in  Ih:M. 

Twelve  miles  up  the  river,  on  the  South  bank,  is  Weddel  Hlufl"  a  conspicuous 
headland  ;  and  I)  miles  further  is  another,  called  IJeagle  IHufT.  Weddel  lihitf.  kept

direetion  as  far  as  the  eye  can  reaeli  from  the  Landfall  Islands  ;  but  lliey  could  not  he 
explored  for  want  of  time. 

Cape  Seheiky  is  a  remarkable  double-peaked  hriirht,  at  the  South  exlrcmiiy  of  the 
I.uidfall  Islands;  sonic  rorks  just  avasli  lit;  a  mile  oil' it. 

C.  pe  Inman  is  a  v(>ry  rennirkable  headland  at  their  Western  extremity.  OIT  this 
cape  there  arc  several  detached  rocks,  on  which  the  sea  breaks  vi(lenily,  and  iri\cs 
them  a  foru;idab!c  apjx'arance.  The  outermost  one  is  not  2  miles  from  the  shore,  and 
shows  itself  plainly. 

lieiiind  Cape  Inman  is  Lntittnle  May,  an  anchorape  ilecidedly  good,  thoiitih  some- 
what exposed  to  a  swell  thrown  in  by  heavy  North-west  winds. 

I!ctw(  en  the  Landfall  Islaiifis  there  is  a  sniiji;  berlli  for  a  vesstd  not  drawing'  nioro 
than  1"J  ieet.in  jierfect  security,  and  with  smooth  water,  she  slio\ild  not  moor  in  hss 
than  10  fatlioms.  l)ut  keep  as  (dose  to  the  \\  estern  shor"  as  possible,  with  an  ancdior 
to  the  i'/aslward,  in  the  event  of  the  wind  coming  ("rem  fluit  (juiirtcr.  \\ater  and  Avood 
are  j)lcntiful. 

Cape  Sunday,  on  Graves  Island,  is  the  next  headland,-,^  is  high  and  pr(miinent. 
Two  islets  and  two  dangerous  rocks  lie  ofVit.  Graves  Islaaci  is  the  larnfcst  of  a  (dus- 
ter called  the  Week  Islands.  At  their  South  side  is  a  roadstc;  d,  an  ith  good  Ik  Idiau  in 
IH  or  -Jd  fathoms,  coarse  gravfd  and  sand,  wiih  patches  of  rock.  It  is  e.\p(is((|  tn 
Southerly  \vinds  and  to  those  fiom  the  West,  therefore  an  imj)roper  place  for  a  vessel 
to  anfdior.  iielween  the  islamls  a  small  vess(d  may  find  a  sinig  berth,  quite  scciiio, 
but  dillicult  of  access.  The  IJeagle  lay  at  anchor  there  a  wetdv,  in  24  fathoms,  yond 
holding-ground.  .\s  liefore  said,  the  eye  must  he  the  chief  guide  in  entering  most  of 
these  place!-  :  they  arc  of  one  di  scription — inlets  between  high  ridges  of  land,  linviiifr 
generally,  dee])  water,  and  k(d|)  Imoving  the  rocky  places.  Flaws  ot'wind  r  iid  vioiint 
gusts  oil"  the  -ligli  land  render  the  approach  ditlicult  to  all,  and,  to  a  large  ship,  iai- 
j.-actieablc. 

.After  passing  Capo  Sunday,  13;(rrister  Hay  opens  out,  but  it  is  an  cposcd  place,  full 
of  islels.  rocks,  and  breakers,  and  unlit  for  any  vessel. 

I''ive  leagues  to  the  North-westward  of  T'ajX'  Sunday  is  Cape  Deseado,  the  highest 
land  iiereabont,  and  remarkable.      A  rocky  islet  lies  a  mile  ou"  the  cajie. 

Two  miles  to  the  Soulh-eiistward  of  Cape  Deseado  there  is  an  opening,  which  has 
not  y(^t  been  cx;imined,  from  whcnc  to  the  cape  the  coast  runs  high  and  utd)r(d<(ii. 

Four  miles  N.W.  i  U".  from  Cape  Deseado  is  Dislocation  Harbor,  a  ]dace  (d' icfii|.re 
for  an  embayed  or  distressed  shij),  l)ut  unfit  for  any  other  pnrjiose  ;  its  (iiiraictis 
rendered  difTicult,  to  the  eye,  by  rocks,  on  which  the  sea  breaks  violently  ;  and  hv  uvo 
rocks  under  water,  on  which  the  sea  does  not  always  break.  The  place  of  Dislnnt- 
tion  ll.irbor  is  jjointed  out  by  the  heighis,  railed  Law  and  Shoulder  Peaks,  iluy  are 
the  most  remarkable  on  that  part  of  the  coast,  and  inunediattdy  over  the  harbur. 

To  find  the  entrance,  steer  for  the  ]icaks,  look  otit  for  the  weather  and  he  rucks. 
both  several  feet  above  water,  the  sea  breaking  violently  on  them,  and  when  nidiin  1 
miles  of  the  shore  you  will  distinctVy  see  the  opmiing  from  the  nuist-hcad.  In  lidiiiij 
in,  avoid  the  two  rocks  at  the  entrance,  and  anchor  in  the  innermost  part  :  only  ii  siiin'l 
shiji  can  get  out  again  witlM)ut  a  fai;-  wind.  The  prevailing  winds  send  in  a  swell,  Imt 
the  place  is  (piite  secure.  \\  atcr  m.ay  bt-  obtained  very  easily,  the  boats  can  lie  in  n 
stream  which  runs  from  tli'^  mountains,  and  fill  alo!igside.  Wood  is  plentiful.  I'oiir 
small  vessels  in;iy  lie  in  security  ;  the  bottom  is  very  even,  from  15  to  25  fallioais,  tine 
white  sand. 

The  entrance  is  narrow,  exposed  to  the  prevailing  wind  and  swell,  which  miulil.for 
days  together,  |)revent  ii  vess.  1  fnun  getting  out  to  s   a.

Pocks  show  themsidves  ;  they  are  from  .')  to  ')(>  feet  above  the  sea,  but  many  hriakcrs 
near  them  indicate?  an  extensive  reef.     The  outer  rock  is  1  miles  from  Ihe  land. 

.Vt  3  miles  N.N.W.  from  the  Apostle  Rocks,  Cape  Pillar  projects  to  the  Norlii  \vrst, 
beinu' the  extremitv  of  Tierra  del  I''uego.  and  forming  the  Western  entrance  In  Ma-

The  tides  beluecn  Cape  Horn  and  Cape  Pillar  are  regular  as  regards  tlnir  rise, 
fall,  and  time  of  high-water,  but  not  so  with  respect  to  tiieir  velocity  ;nid  diiiclioii. 
It  appeared  that  while  the  water  was  rising  upon  the  shore,  the  tide  (or  rallar  cur- 
rent) set  alongshore  from  ihe  North-west  towards  the  South-east  at  the  rale  af  a 
knot,  or  more,  according  to  the  wind. 

During  six  hours  of  fulling  water,  or  ebb-tide,  there  was  little  or  no  current  setting  . 
along  shore.

IILUNT'S  AMKRICAN  COAST  PILOT. 


The  hiirhors  of  Stiiten  Island  are  with  one  exception  confined  (o  its  Xorliicrn  side  ; 
tJKjy  are,  St,  Johns  Ilarhor,  Port  C'ooli,  New  Year  Marlior,  Port  l{asil  ilall,  l^)^t 
Parry,  I'ort  IIoj)|)ner,  and  I'ort  Vancouver.  Then;  an;  also  two  or  thr»!e  siuai!  i)ays 
in  Ihc  Strait  of  Le  Maire,  but  tliey  are  renth'red  nnsal'e  hy  their  exposure  to  tlie  pr(!- 
valei  t  VVcslerly  winds.  All  th-,se  aiichoratjt'.s,  tlioui^h  well  |)roU!cle(l  \viu'ii  once 
gaineil,  are  nu)re  or  less  dilllcult  of  access  frinn  the  lorce  with  whicli  the  iidcs  sc^t 
across  the  mouths  of  the  inlets,  the  de|jth  of  water,  and  variableness  of  the  wind, 
Avhich  in  every  instance,  except  that  of  blowinfx  iinincdiately  lengthways  of  the  port, 
finds  its  way  down  the  ravines  of  the  mountains  in  various  directions,  according  to 
the  peculiarity  of  their  form. 

The  .New  Year  Islanils  aUbrd  a  sort  of  protection  frouj  Westerly  winds,  and  there 
is  aiiclKM-asrt!  under  the  Nor! h-easlernuiost  in  17  fathoms ;  but  it  cannot  l)e  rcconi- 
nu^nded,  beintr  open  to  the  influence  of  all  wirals  between  N.  and  M.S.i;.,  the  bottom 
rocUy,  and  ilu;  tides  rapid,  while  the  eddies  are  so  uncertain  in  tluur  distanctc  iVoni  the 
island,  I  hat  it  is  by  no  means  easy  to  kee[)  a  ship  clear  of  her  anchors. 

St.  .Johns  Harbor  is  tiiu  ilasternmost  in  the  island,  and  may  be  easily  rccotjnized 
nl  a  dislance  by  Vloimt  Uiciiardson,  at  tiie  base  of  which  it  is  situateil.  On  noaring 
it,  a  remarkable  clitl"  like  a  painter's  nmllor,  appears  on  the  i'lastern  shore,  v.  Iiich  is 
hin'li  and  sleep.  Allowance  must  be  nnid(!  in  sleerinir  for  the  harbor  for  the  set  of 
tlie  tid(!,  which  at  all  limes  runs  rapidly  across  its  mouth  ;  it  is,  however,  less  sensi- 
ble wh.'U  witiiin  the  headland.s  tbriiiinif  the  North-west  hay,  in  which  in  case  of  nc- 
ces-dly,  or  to  await  the  turn  of  the  tide,  an  anchor  may  i)e  drojiped  in  from  20  to  IK) 
fathoms.  The  mouth  of  the  harbor  is  wide,  having  Jo  fathoms  in  the  centre,  with  a 
rock  standing  olf  at  some  distan(!e  from  the  Western  point,  to  which  a  berth  must  be 
given.  The  sii(»res,  with  this  exception,  are  bold,  and  immediately  within  the  West- 
ern poiiil  is  a  small  bay,  where  anchorage  may  be  had  in  1(1  fathoms.  The  most  shel- 
tered situation  is  at  the  head  of  tin;  harbor,  distant  from  the;  entrance  3  miles  S  S.W'., 
where  ii  vessel  may  choose  iiny  depth  between  -JO  and  5  fathoms,  with  sumly  botloai, 
and  moor  with  ati  open  hawse  to  the  S.W'.,  from  \vhenee  tlic  gusts  that  come  from 
the  mountains  are  violent.  The  witid,  anytliiii'j:  to  the  W  (!sl  ward  of  N..\.  \V  .,  or  even 
N.  VV.  outside,  will  be  found  to  draw  out  «d"  the  harbor  on  iiearitig  its  head,  and  if  at 
all  strong,  it  will  be  impossible  lo  beat  furtiier,  as  if  I'oliows  the  direction  imi)ar(ed  to 
it  by  every  ravitie  in  the  hill  as  il,  passes  ;  and  thert^forc  warping  will  be  found  the 
only  means  of  tulvaiicing,  taking  care  to  have  hatuls  by  a  bower  aticlior  ready  to  let 
go,  and  the  cable  stojjpared  at  a  short  sco|)e,  in  the  event  of  the  hawsers  being  car- 
ried away.  A  siii[)  may  readily  heave  down  on  a  beach  of  sand  ut  the  head  of  this 
harbor.      Wood  and  water  art;  pltMitiful  iitid  easily  procured. 

The  sli(»r(!s  of  St.  .jidins  Harbor  arc  lined  with  kelp,  which  is  tin  excellent  indica- 
tion of  its  navigable  part,  the  border  of  it  being  almost  itivariably  in  n  f.ithoms,  and 
that  close  to  the  shore,  the  depth  rapidly  itUM-easing  towards  the  centre,  until  near  the 
head  of  the  harbor,  where  the  de|)th  grailually  dei^reases  to  tin;  beach. 

Port  ('ook  is  the  most  e  igilde  harbor  in  Staten  Island  for  ;i  shi|)  in  want  of  sludter, 
from  th(^  irood  aiudmragc  at  its  nitranee  in  not  too  dee])  water,  the  greater  re<_;ulariiy 
of  the  pievailinir  winds,  atid  the  facility  of  conminnication  with  the  .South  sidi'  of  the 


island,  1)V  means  of  the  low  isthinus  separating  it  from  Port  Vancouver. 

Port  IJasil  Hall  is  separated  by  a  narrow  neck  of  elevated  land  from  the  head 
of  New  Year  Harbor,  though  their  mouths  are  "Jj  miles  apart.  'I'his  is  a  tiiosc 
convenient  atichorarc  when  once  attaitied,  and  well  sheltered  frotn  all  winds,  ihounh 
the  depth  of  water  anil  contraction  of  its  month  by  two  delafhed  rocks  render  it  dilli- 
eull  of  entrance  without  a  comniatiding  breeze  and  faxorabic  tide.  There  arc;  three 
rocky  Jiatches  nearly  in  the  tniddle  of  the  s|)ace  within  the  cntran(;e,  but  all  thedaaijcr 
is  pointed  out  by  the  k(d|)  and  the  tops  of  the  rocks  themselves,  which  show  at  hall- 
tide  :  they  must  be  ptissed  on  the  llastern  sich;,  where  there  is  a  space  siillieieiitly 
wide  to  admit  of  bciiting  in  moderate  W(!ather.  The  best  tmchoragc  is  between  ii 
small  green  island  on  the  Western  shore,  and  a  fine  sandy  beach  to  the  .Northward  of 
the  island  ;  it  gives  from  7  to  10  fathoms,  and  the  island  may  be  jtassed  on  eillicr  side, 
taking  ('are  to  avoid  a  rocky  ledgi;  that  runs  olfits  S(Milh-(!ast  extreinitv.  Alih(itii;h 
th«!  whirlwinds  common  to  all  the  harbors  of  Staten  Island  are  found  to  exisi  here, 
yet  the  com|)arative  lowness  of  the  South-western  .shore  rend<>rs  IIkmo  less  violent 
than  iti  many  of  Ihe  others;  and  the  .New  Year  Islands  aflbrd  some  i)rolee(ion  to  tl.i.

A  fit  r  entering  the  outer  harbor,  there  is  no  l-otlom  wiiii  3o  fa  I  boms,  unlil  i;ear  the

flaws  liiat  might,  in  so  narrow  a  channel, drive  the  sliii)  (mi  shore  before  the  sails  could 
be  trimmed. 

To  this  harbor  the  sealing-vessels  are  aecustouied  to  resort  when  in  want  of  i(!pairs. 
or  as  a  place  of  shelttsr  while  their  Ixmls  are  absent  in  the  jjiirsuit  of  furs  ;  in  this 
respect  it  is,  however,  very  inf(;rior  in  point  of  eonvenieiiee  to  Pint  Cook,  for  thoimh 
the  disiance  acros-i  the  island  from  the  head  of  the  harbor  iuirillv  exceeds  the  breadih 
of  the  isthmus  at  I'ort  Cook,  and  there  is  a  hoiil-harbor  on  the  Southern  shore  marly 
opposite,  yet  the  elevati(Ui  of  the  land  is  too  great  to  admit  of  a  conimunicatioii  being 
kept  u])  w  ithout  two  separate  estahlishments. 

I'rom  ihe  height  of  the  laud  also  the  s(|ualls  are  freipicnt  and  violent,  though  not 
suflicient  to  cause  appndiension  to  a  shij)  well  moored.

of  the  Western  arm  of  Port  Parry,  howevi^r,  the  distance  across  the  ne(dv  of  land  does 
not  excised  half  a  mile.  This  harbor  is  also  divided  iulo  two  parts,  like  Port  I'arry; 
it  has  a  high  rocky  island  in  iN  mouth,  by  which  it  is  protected  fnnn  North-w cstevly 
winds,  and  whiidi  atl'ords  amdiorage  for  the  s])ace  of  half  a  mile  within  it.  In  from  M 
tort  fathoms.  To  the  South-east  (d'lhis  islaiul,  liowever,  there  is  a  continuation  of 
rocky  patches,  and  twojiiniiaeled  rocks  \)c,c\^  above  the  wiiter's  edge,  and  are  surrounded 
by  abnndaiiee  of  kelp.  Near  the  head  of  tlu  outer  harhor,  there  is  also  anchorage  close 
to  the  shore,  which  on  the  Western  side  is  high  and  precipitous.  'I'he  gullet  is  not 
more  ihan  from  •_'.")  to  .30  yards  broad,  with  from  'J  to  1  fallunns  in  it  ;  yel  the  seal- 
ers sometimes  haul  their  small  schooners  through  into  the  innorhasin,  uiiere  they  arc 
coinjiletely  secure  from  all  winds  in  from  20  to  6  fathoms,  and  moor  by  hawsers 
to  the  rocks.  The  tide  rushes  throuirh  the  narrow  opeinngs  wiih  great  velocity; 
it  would  be  prudent,  therefore,  not  to  coaunence  warping  in  until  the  last-quarter 
flood.

was  diminished  in  its  velocity  loahoiii  hall  the  iiiiioiint  we  had  previously  (!X|)erieiic(Hl. 
From  tlii:se  several  irreffiil..rities,  the  individual  ohservalions  do  not  adiiiil  of  any 
very  salisiaelory  coiKdiisioiis  heiiijr  drawn;  lint  taken  cidleelively,  they  indiciiie  an 
Easterly  or  \orlli-eusterly  set,  as  siiowii  on  the  lasi  eoliimn  of  ilie  tahle  ;  on  lookin^r

S.  dj-'  !•].,  ot  eipuil  streii)flh,  was  experiimced  durinjj  the  same  season  of  the  year  : 
while  in  llit!  aiituiiiiial  months  this  current  was  iouiid  to  set  .N .  I'.)  I').,  with  nearly 
twice  llio  vtdocity.  All  this  seems  lo  indicate  ihatllu!  winds  from  ilie  Sonlli-westcrii 
quurier,  in  iiutuiiin,  are  more  violi'iit  and  of  longer  duration  than  in  the  summer 
season:  ami  indeed,  on  a  review  of  llii;  wiinls  during  the  passaices  in  the  dillireiit 
seasons  alluded  lo,  it  was  fouiiil  that  >  V,,  VV.,aiid  S.VV.  winds  exceeded  those  tVom 
all  oiiicr  ipiarlers  put  I04ellier,  in  the  moiilli  of  March,  in  the  ratio  of  1  to  I  ;  while 
in  tin;  Mimin^r  months,  and  duriii{f  an  equal  iiiierval,  tliise  \vinds  were  found  to  ex- 
ceed all  oiliiTs  ;n  the  ratio  of  "J  to  1  only  ;  which  jioints  out  at  once,  apart  from  other 
rircuiinsiaiices,  that  the  most  advantageous  jiart  of  the  year  for  roiindiiiir  this  noted 
promoiilory  is  the  suiiiiiuir  moiitlis  of  those  regions.  And,  from  llii!  streiiKih  and  Ire-  Awe  for 
queney  of  the  ;r.iles  that  were  exjjerienced  in  the  month  of  March,  I  am  iininced  to  roiiiirling 
racoiiiiiiciid  the  summer  season  as  tlie  proper  time  for  tlie  miviy;aiion  of  ih-ise  seas  ;  Cape  Horn. 
particularly  as  at  that  season  iNorth  easterly  winds  may  he  ex;  ecled  in  tli«'  parnlh  I 
of  00'  Smiih  ;  and  as,  in  all  prohahility,  they  continue  to  hlovv  in  a  liijfli  Smiiiiern 
latitude  tlironifhout  the  sumnier,  lor  we  found  (he  Norili-easterlv  winds  lo  he  ihe 
prevailing-  winds  duriiijf  our  residence  at  South  Shetland  in  ihe  nioiitii>  of  January 
and  I'eliniary. 

The  next  ami  most  important  conclusion  to  ho  drawn  from  these  ohserv.'ilions  is, 
that  the  set  of  the  llooil-tide  round  t-'ape  Horn  conies  from  the  S.W.  ;  such,  at  least, 
seems  to  he  the  case  from  the  observuiions  made  duriii(r  the  passaire  <d'  the  Chaiiii- 
cleer  t'roiii  Cape  Horn  lo  Slaten  Island,  in  May,  lK'.iW  ;  for,  at  the  iiiiic  of  t  ikliin.our 
departure  from  Cape  Horn,  it  was  asci'rlained  to  he  nearly  low-water;  and  on  our  ar- 
rival oil"  Cape  St.  John  the  llood-tiiie  had  just  made  its   mark.     The  p.-issa'jfe  fioai 
Cape  Horn  to  Stateii  island  was  perlorined  in  Si  hours,  in  which  interval  we  had  i'elt 
the  whole  inihu-nce  of  two  Hood-tides,  a\  hile  that  of  one  ehli  OJily  had  hecn  expe- 
rienced ;  and  on  coinpariiifj  the  shi[)'s  i)lace,  ascertained   hy  hcarintrs  at  the  time  of 
our  departure  from  (!ape  Morn,  with  the  dead-reid.oiiintr.  on  our  arrive.l  olf  Cape  St. 
John,  and  kept  in  the  most  iinexceptiiinahle  inanner  under  very  favurtihle  cireuiii- 
stances,  viz.,  line  weather,  a  free  thouirh  si('e  wind,  and  Ihe  ship's  wny  throu;jrh  the 
water  measured  with  a  self-rcLristerin^  lo(t.  a  set    i\.  ,")!     10.,  (true,)  at  ilic  ra'.e  oi  51 
miles  in  23  hours,  was  experienced  ;  from  which,  if  04  miles  he  deducted  for  tlie 
eficct  of  the  previously  esiahlished  current  at  this  season,  we  have  \W  miles  for  the 
set  of  the  llood-tide  at  neaps,  or  ahout  ;i  miles  jier  hour.      It  is  I'lso  to  he  considered 
that  in  advaiicintj  to  the  liaslward  the  llood-tide  is   prolonired,  ai;(I,  on  I'ne  contrary, 
the  ehl)  is  curtailed.     How  far  the  stieii^'th  of  these  tides  may  have  operated  in  pro- 
ducing some  of  the  irregularities  in  the  iSorth-easterly  set  of  the  riea.  deduced  from 
the  previous  observations  when  near  inshore,  hy  having  been  inllni:nced  by  oiihcr 
tide  for  a  longer  period  in  the  interval  between  the  <d)s(>rvatioiis.  1  h:ive  not  ascer- 
tained;  but  from  some  notes  which  weie  made  at  the  time,  I  have  cverj  reason  to 
believe  that  the  tides  caused  part  of  the  irre<jularities  in  (picstion.

Remarks  upon  the  passage  round  Cape  Horn. 

Ships  bound  from  the  AUaiitic  to  any  of  t!ie  ports  in  ti.o  Pacific,  will  fitul  it  ndvaii- 
taijeous  to  i\eep  witliiii  100  miles  of  the  coast  of  i'iastijrn  Patafroiiia,  as  well  as  to 
avoiii  tl';-  heavy  sea  that  is  raised  hy  the  Westerly  gales  wliieli  prevail  to  the  Kast- 
wanl,  and  increase  in  strength  according  I'o  tlie  distance  from  the  land,  as  to  |)rolit  hy 
the  variableness  of  the  wind  when  fixed  in  the  Western  board.  Near  the  coast,  from 
A-pril  to  September,  when  the  sun  has  North  declination,  the  winos  prevail  more  from 
the  W.N.W.  to  N.N.W.,  than  from  any  other  (juarter.  Easterly  pales  are  of  v('r\ 
fare  occurrence,  but  even  when  they  do  blow,  the  direction  being  obliquely  upon  tin 
coast,  I  do  not  consider  it  at  all  hazardous  to  keej)  the  land  on  board.  In  the  oppu- 
site  season  when  the  sun  has  South  declination,  the  winds  will  incline  from  tlie 
Southward  of  West,  and  fretpiently  blow  hard  ;  but  as  the  coast  is  a  weather  shore, 
the  sea  goes  down  immediately  after  the  gale.  In  this  season,  although  the  wimls 
are  generally  against  a  ship's  making  quick  progress,  yet  us  they  seldom  remain  fixid 
in  one  point,  and  frequently  shift  backward  and  forward  6  or  8  points  in  as  many  hours, 
advantage  may  be  taken  of  the  change  so  as  to  keep  close  in  '  ith  the  coast. 

Having  once  made  the  land,  which  should  be  done  to  the  S<  jlhward  of  Cape  Blan- 
co, it  will  be  beneficial  to  keep  it  topping  on  the  horizon,  uniii  the  entrance  of  the 
Strait  of  Magellan  be  passed. 

Wi;n.  iespect  to  this  part  of  the  voyage,  whether  to  j)ass  through  the  Strait  le 
JMaire,  or  round  Staten  Island,  umch  ditVerence  of  opinion  exists.  Prudence,  I  think, 
suggests  the  latter  ;  yet  I  should  very  reluctantly  give  up  the  o|)portuiiity  that  niijiht 
offer  of  clearing  the  strait,  and  therefore  of  being  so  much  more  to  windward.  \\  ith 
a  Southerly  wind,  it  would  not  be  advisable  to  attempt  the  strait  ;  for,  with  a  wea- 
ther-tide, the  sea  runs  very  cross  ttnd  deep,  and  might  severely  injure  and  ( ndiiiger 
the  siifety  of  ii  small  vessel  and  to  a  large  one  do  much  damage.  In  calm  wetither 
it  would  be  still  more  imjjriident,  (unless  the  Western  side  of  the  strait  can  be  reacli- 
,ed,  where  a  ship  might  anchor,)  on  account  of  the  tide  setting  over  the  Staten  IslaiKl 
sid(!,  where,  if  it  becomes  necessary  to  anehor,  it  would  necessarily  be  in  very  det'ii 
water,  and  close  to  the  land.  With  a  Norilicrly  wind  the  route  seems  not  only  pnic- 
ticable,  but  very  adviinttigeons,  and  it  would  require  .some  resolution  to  give  up  tlie 
opportunity  so  invitingly  otrered.  I  doubt  whether  Northerly  winds,  unless  they  are 
very  strong,  blow  through  the  strait — if  not,  a  ship  is  drifted  over  to  the  Eustern 
shores,  where,  from  the  force  of  the  tides,  she  must  be  quite  unmanageable. 

Captain  Fitz-ltoy,  whose  Jiuthority,  from  his  experience,  nmst  be  very  good,  seems 
to  think  there  is  neither  diflicnlty  nor  risk  in  passing  the  strait.  The  only  danger 
tliat  does  exist,  and  that  may  be  tin  imtiginary  one,  is  the  failure  of  the  wind.  Slii|)s 
passing  through  it  from  the  South,  are  not  so  liable  to  the  failure  of  the  South-west- 
erly wind,  unless  it  be  light,  and  then  it  will  probably  be  from  the  N.W.  at  the  Noilli- 
ern  end  of  the  strait.  The  anchorttge  in  Good  Success  bay,  however,  is  admirably 
eituated,  should  the  wind  or  tide  fail. 

In  passing  to  leeward  of  Staten  Island,  the  tide-race,  which  extends  for  some  dis- 
tance off  Ciipe  St.  John,  at  the  N.E.  end  of  ihe  island,  must  be  avoided,  otherv\ist 
there  exist  no  dangers. 

The  anchorage  under  New  Year's  Islands,  although  it  is  a  wild  one,  the  bottmn 
bad,  and  the  tide  very  strong,  j.^t  otfers  good  shelter  from  South-west  winds,  and  might 
be  ocfU|)ied  with  adv  lutage  tluritig  the  existence  of  a  gale  from  that  quarter,  sii.ce  it 
is  ur' favorable  for  ships  bound  round  the  Horn. 

After  [)assi!Mr  S*alen  Island,  if  the  wind  be  Westerly,  the  ship  should  be  kept  u|ion 
the  starboard  ttick,  unless  it  vc-ers  to  (he  Southward  of  S.S.W.,  until  she  reaches  the 
latitude  of  Go'  Sotith,  and  theti  upon  that  tack  upon  which  most  Wotiiig  iiiiiy  ht! 
made.  In  this  parallel,  however,  the  wind  is  thought  to  prevail  more  from  the  East- 
ward than  from  any  other  qtiarter.  Never  having  |)assed  round  Cape  Horn  in  liie 
summer  season,  I  may  perhajis  be  justified  in  opposing  my  opinion  to  that  of  oth.  r.s; 
who,  hiiving  tried  both  seiisoi;.s,  give  the  preference  to  the  summer  months.  Tli:'  -111- 
Viintage  of  long  dnys  is  certainly  very  gretit.  but  from  my  experience  of  the  winds  and 
weather  during  lhe;;e  opposite  sesisons  at  Port  P'amine,  I  preferred  the  winter  pas- 
sage ;  and  in  our  subscvitient  experience  of  it,  found  no  reason  to  alter  my  o|iiiii(in. 
Easterly  and  .Northerly  winds  prevail  in  the  winter  oil' the  cape,  wliilst  Sotitlierlyaiui 
Westerly  winds  are  oonstant  during  the  summer  motillis  ;  and  not  only  are  the  wimis 
more  favor  iblc  in  the  winter,  but  they  are  moderate  in  comparison  to  the  fury  ol  the 
Bummer  gales. 

H.iving  passed  the  meridian  of  Cape  Pillar,  it  will  yet  be  iidvisable  to  take  every 
opportunity  of  making  Westing  iti  preftirence  to  Northing,  until  reaching  the  ineriiiiin 
of  H-2^  or  81'',  which  will  enable  a  ship  to  steer  through  the  North-westerly  winds 
that  prevail  between  the  parallels  of  50'  and  6i\  (See  Hall's  South  America,

to  S.S.VV.,  until  it  reached  '2'J  !)5.  when  it  fell  ag:iin.  and  the  wc^ather  iiKnIerated, 
but  without  any  change  of  wind.  Uuring  the  descent  of  the  nieiciiry,  the  sky  with 
us  was  dull  and  overcast,  with  squalls  of  wind  and  rain,  but  o'l  shore  it  seemed  to  be 
very  line  sunshiny  weather. 

The  column  now  fell  to  2i)'2l5,  and  during  its  descent  the  weather  remained  the 
same,  dull  and  showery  ;  but  as  soon  as  the  mercury  becume  stationary,  a  fresh  breeze 
set  in  from  the  Southward,  with  line  weather. 

A'"tir  this  to  new  moon,  the  weather  was  very  unsettled,  the  wind  veering  helweeu 
S.  and  VV.S.W.,  the  baromeier  rising  as  it  vet'red  to  the  I'omier.  and  fulling  as  it  be- 
came more  \\  eslerly  ;   but  on  no  occiision  did  it  precede  the  change. 

Tlie  mean  heiglit  of  the  barometer  is  about  -,'9  5. 

The  mercury  stands  lowest  with  N.VV.  winds,  and  highest  with  'vK. 

\\  ith  the  wind  at  .\.\V.,  or  Northerly  (he  mercury  is  low  ;  if  ii  falls  lo  v.'!)  inches, 
or  'JS-HD,  a  .S  W.  gale  may  be  ex|)ected,  but  does  not  eoniiiieiuM'  until  the  cohiiim  has 
ceased  to  descend.  It  frequently,  however,  falls  without  lieini.'-  t  >llowed  by  this 
change.  In  the  month  of  June,  at  Port  I'amine,  the  barometer  fell  to  -Jl^  17.  aid  al'ter- 
vyards  gradually  rose  to  3()-5,  which  was  followed  by  cold  weather,  in  which  the  iher- 
nionieter  stood  at  12". 

The  following  table  shows  the  mean  temperature  and  pressure  as  registered  tit  tht
